Approaching Mill End, turn north up the Hambleden valley, signposted Hambleden and Skirmett. After a short distance on the left, well before the white railings close to the road, turn left into Yewden Farm and proceed through the opening in the brick wall directly ahead. Parking for The Old Wood Yard is immediately on the left in front of the building. Situation The Old Wood Yard occupies a delightful former farm courtyard setting. Yewden Farm sits between Mill End and Hambleden in this delightful Chilterns setting with miles of riding and walking on the doorstep, access to the River Thames via Hambleden Lock, and with Hambleden Mill Marina within walking distance for those who enjoy boating. There is a bus-stop at the foot of the valley with buses from Reading to High Wycombe including Marlow and Henley, and there is a village shop in Hambleden village within a mile for everyday needs. The nearby riverside towns of Marlow and Henley provide extensive shopping, recreational and educational facilities, both with branch line stations via Twyford and Maidenhead respectively to London Paddington. The A404M is approximately 6 miles distant, connecting to the M4 and M40 motorways. The property falls within the catchment area for Buckinghamshire grammar schools, including Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School in Marlow. Description The Old Wood Yard, formerly part of the Hambleden Estate, probably dates back to the late 1880s and was converted for the first time in 1994. Our clients have owned the property since, and it sits within the Hambleden Conservation Area covered by a 1947 National Trust covenant. The Old Wood Yard provides imaginative accommodation with 3 bedrooms on the first floor and a 4th bedroom en suite on the ground floor, with an open plan and vaulted impressive reception area that meanders from the main seating area through to a dining area and sitting room with separate study. There is a comprehensively fitted farmhouse style kitchen/breakfast room with integral double bowl sink unit with mixer taps, Beko dishwasher, granite worktops, larder cupboard, tiled floor, Rangemaster 5-ring induction hob with ovens and extractor, and exposed beams to add to the character, plus an island unit with storage and oak top. Beside is the utility room with stainless steel sink unit, Worcester oil-fired boiler and Megaflo for pressurised hot water, space and plumbing for washing machine and door to outside. The character of the barn is obvious with the vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, including an impressive fireplace with wood burning stove to the main reception area and with a number of points of access to the private garden and one to the communal lawned garden. The owners benefit from 1/5th share of Yewden Farm Management, which owns a paddock in which our clients have an allotment and shared use. Outside The Old Wood Yard has the benefit of 2 dedicated parking spaces and 2 – 3 Heritage barn car port spaces, with a private walled courtyard front garden. The rest of the exclusive private garden is to the west and south of the barn with access from the drawing room, laid to lawn and walled, with a delightful south-west terrace/seating area. There is a communal area of lawn in the centre of the complex for shared enjoyment.

  • Historical Notes, Timeline and Previous Occupants of Upper Goddards Farm, Skirmett December 2020
    1 Historical Notes, Timeline and Previous Occupants of Upper Goddards Farm, Skirmett December 2020 (v13) 2 Historic England Listing for Upper Goddards Farm (UGF)1: The listing is Grade II and the details are summarised as follows: House, C17, altered and refronted C18 – C19 and C20. Rear has lower walls of flint with timber framing and whitewashed brick infill above. Front rebuilt in brick at various dates. Old tile roof, chimney of thin brick between the right bays, another brick chimney to rear. C19 gabled flint and brick projection to front. Floorplan of Existing Main Building: Origin of Name: Goddard is an ancient Norman name that arrived in England after the Norman Conquest of 1066. Variants exist in France, Holland and Germany 2. Why it was originally used for Upper & Lower Goddards is not known. The HE website gives 275 listed buildings in England using the name Goddards. Early Records Used: We have identified records at The National Archives (TNA) referring to ‘Goddards’ going back to litigation in the mid-1500’s. Again in the early 1600’s certain Deeds refer to ‘the ancient farm of Goddards Farm’. The earliest formal parish registers date from 1538 after the split from Rome and local registers at Hambleden date from shortly that time. However addresses are not normally included. Wills if made can be very informative and may well include addresses and family relationships. After 1838 civil registration records are available and from 1841 census details with addresses can be consulted. The latest census available is for 1911. A range of genealogical sources have also been consulted.
