This is the Manor Farm at Wanborough that my Grandfather would have known. My Butcher family farmed here until 1930 when the moved across to Guildford to farm at Manor Farm Onslow Village.

    I love this–Such history. And how the world has changed. I wonder what it would have been like to have been born into a world as simple and beautiful as this?

    Happy PFF!

    I have quite a collection of old postcards like this one, I would almost be sure it is a Francis Frith. 🙂
