Cottage farm, Papworth St Agnes

History of Cottage Farm

Dora Tack writes about the farm in Whispering Elms.

1942 empty and dilapidated

The farm was sold to Jim and Harry Billings in 1944. It was sometimes mistakenly referred to as Baldock Farm.

In 1941 a plane on a test flight from RAF Wyton crashed nearby in Barnfield Lane. All the crew died.
