Coad [Coed?]Farm, 60 acres in occupation of proprietor Mr Caleb Gilbert.
White Haywood Farm adjoining, 50 acres, same occupier and proprietor.

Observations:
In rs_cra_0050 reference is made in a document dated 1853 to John Farr of Middle Cwm. If this is the same John Farr as referred to in the sales details as being adjoining Hollywell Farm, it may be reasonable to conclude a sale date in the 1850’s.
