Bayleaf Hall House - Singleton Weald and Downland Museum

Bayleaf is a timber-framed hall-house dating mainly from the early 15th century. The central hall, heated by an open fire, is flanked at one end by service rooms and at the other by rooms for the owner and his family. With replica furniture and equipment, the farmstead is presented as it might have been in about 1540. Singleton Weald and Downland Museum 2007 (Information from the museum website)

Blacksmith's Shop - Weald and Downland Museum - Singleton

The Blacksmith's Shop at the Weald and Downland Museum, Singleton, Sussex I often wonder about family links; a number of family ancestors were farmers and blacksmiths in various villages around the Sussex areas back in the 1700-1800s.
