Hello Damian
Longstone Farm, Ludchurch  was I believe built in 1914.  Two sisters Laura & Lizzie Griffiths farmed there in 1950's and Wm John in 1934.  Egypt was originally the name of a lane that consisted of 12 cottages and later a farm of that name.  The  cottages have now gone and the name Eyypt has died out.  Hope this helps

My Family are from Ludchurch. My Grandfather lived in Frogs Valley, and I also think that they were from Spring gardens, Egypt, before that.

Longstone is the name of the cross roads there and also the name of one of the farms.

What was your Grandfathers name?
