It's a bit late to reply to your comments on Swanshurst Farm but Iam new to forum.An exhibition just finished at Sarehole Mill of material relating to the sale of the "Yardley Estate" which included land stretching from Hall Green to Billesley and along the Cole. The sale (around 1900) was conducted in a number of lots by Knight Frank and Rutley who produced a splendidly detailed survey to go with the sale catalogue which is on display. I don't know where the documents are held normally, perhaps Hall Green Library which was mentioned in some of the material accompanying the exhibition. Can't remember if Swanshurst Farm was one one of the lots though. I lived on Bibsworth Avenue as a boy in the 40's; this is off Swanshurst Lane and would have been almost in the farmyard being just south of the farm's location.
