The Underwood small holding was at some time formerly owned by Ivor Davies, now in 2015 aged 82 – Ivor tells me that he built most of the outbuildings during his tenure and finally sold up some 40 years ago for £11.000.

Ivor Davies, who still lives locally at Netherend has promised to come and visit me and believes he can provide a wealth of details both anecdotal and detailed as he was born on the property.
