History of Elbourne's House

In Fanny Wale’s drawing, Elbourne’s House in on the right. Circa 1908 Fanny wrote about the house:

The house next to King’s Farm also belongs to J F Eaden Esq, at one time Walker, the carpenter, lived in this house, and had his yard at the back. It has a raised garden on the west or front side; in it now lives Elbourne, the blacksmith, who is also Churchwarden and Village Constable.
