Property Details
Owned and farmed by the same family for nearly 30 years prior to which a previous generation had been tenants, New Coghurst Farm forms part of what was once the Coghurst Estate owned and developed by one Musgrave Brisco who had Coghurst Hall built in 1811 by the well-known and prestigious builder at that time, James Burton, and when it is believed that he had Cumbrian stone shipped down to build the mansion. It is probable that New Coghurst Farm which was then part of the Coghurst Hall Estate was built at or around that time as the stone used for the Farmhouse and buildings is very similar. The 1927 Auction Particulars for the Estate describe New Coghurst Farmhouse as being “of a very superior type” with “The Model Farm Buildings being mainly arranged around a centre Yard and chiefly built of stone with slate roof comprising Bacon Curing House, Tool House, Paved Cowsheds to tie up to 33 cows in 5 compartments, Large Barn, Stable for 7 horses and Harness Room together with large walled in Rick-Yard or Sheep-Yard” etc etc.
