Date: 1920 - 1929


This building was Sailors Hall (built in the 18th century)and not Mill Farm. It was located about 200 yds south of Hawthorn Towers and 100 yds west of Hawthorn viaduct. By 1926 it was unoccupied and fell into disrepair. It is now overgrown and anyone unaware of its location, would not know that a building had once stood there
