<strong>Houses</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lackham</strong> 2 nd ed 40<br />
Fig. 27 detail from 1856 map showing driveways. **<br />
Home Farm was built some time between 1816 and 1856, it appears for<br />
the first time on this 1856 map. <strong>The</strong> original drive had been abandoned<br />
and a new trackway to Home Farm (the one seen today) had been<br />
constructed. It used, however, the same entrance as the old main drive.<br />
<strong>The</strong> next map is dated 1864, and was made for another sale that did<br />
not result in a change <strong>of</strong> ownership. It shows further development<br />
<strong>of</strong> the drive, see below.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re appears to have been changes made to the stream close to where it<br />
debouches into the Avon. A rectangular arrangement <strong>of</strong> channels appears<br />
to have been put in place, the reason for this is unknown, but it might<br />
have been to do with the shooting interests <strong>of</strong> the estate.
