SO7235 : Dingwood Park Farm and Oast
taken 7 years ago, near to Broom's Green, Gloucestershire, Great Britain

Dingwood Park Farm and Oast
Circular Oast kiln with tiled roof.
Dingwood deerpark, south of Ledbury, was owned by the bishops of Hereford in the 13th century; there are several documentary references to it. It was bought by Francis Hall of the New House in Ledbury (now Ledbury Park), and was transferred to the Biddulphs when they bought the Halls' estates c. 1680. The present house at Dingwood may have been built in the late 17th century. It became a farmhouse in the 18th century, and the 1831 OS 1" map shows it as Dingwood Park Farm. On Bowen's 1775 county map it is The Park, while Bryant's county map of 1835 has no park but names the main road N of Dingwood 'Parkway', as does the tithe map.
