Hello yes the Churchyard still exists at Newfield, although the Church is no longer there. Unfortunately due to the lockdown I wouldn't be able to go and look for you. I would certainly look for you if you give me all the details when we are allowed out again and I will see if I can find it as my Grandparents and Uncles and Aunts are buried there.

Hello can you please send me a copy of the map, as if I see it I may be able to help or find someone in the village who can. Thanks

Hello sorry I can't get access to any details at present due to the virus. All our files are in the Parish Hall in Byers Green. The Todd family definitely lives in Todd Hills. I am not aware of Nutty Hagg??

Hello have you seen the photo I posted last year of the house? From what I can gather the Todd family owned a house at Seldom Seen (now called Todd Hills) on the map. They were farm owners, something unknown happened to them and they just left leaving the buildings.  A bungalow is now situated on the land where the house stood and the brickyard now stands on the land.( Brickyard makes building bricks for houses)

Hello I and my sister do the history weekend at Byers Green. My sister's both live in Byers Green and I was born in the village. I  copied the picture of the farmhouse it was situated at Todd Hills which is a hamlet between Newfield and Byers Green.

Thank you do you have an email address and I can send you a picture of Seldom seen and I would like copies of any information you have on your past relatives, to include in our history details. I was born in Byers Green and my mother was born in the village and my Dad at New field. Whilst I was growing up their were 3different families of Todd none live in the village now but I am in contact with some of them. Which family are you looking for?

Hello I along with my sister do history days on Byers Green as we were both born in the village, and my sister still lives there. Along Hagg Lane. I would be grateful for any copies of photos of people and especially the map that Neil Fox has. You can send them by email to me if you can contact me. We have just received some photos of Seldom Seen terraced house, which we are trying to sort. The houses are now all gone but the road to them is still there. Hagg Lane is at the top of Byers Green near the Church. Thanks for any help.
