Lyndon Green Farm Yardley

Going much further back in Lyndon Green history, this extract was posted by Pedrocut on the Mills of Birmingham thread. Could Lyndon Green Farm have been on/or part of the former mill site ? Could the farm location have been decided upon because of a connection in some way to the mill ? Although the mill is thought to have been medieval (c1500's?) part of the farm was B&W timbered (c1700's) so might have been around when the mill was still standing ? Just a thought, no firm evidence as such. Pity no early maps show the mill.
