Hi I was wondering if anyone could tell me where Hutts Farm was, thank you Liz Clarke

Hi Liz

Is it this one?

Hutts Farm is a 17th-century timber-framed house comprising a main block and a cross-wing, the latter plastered over; the date 1665 and the initials of members of the Malson family are carved on a beam inside.

From: 'Westbury-on-Severn: Introduction', A History of the County of Gloucester: Volume 10: Westbury and Whitstone Hundreds (1972), pp. 79-85. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=15765&strquery=hutts+farm Date accessed: 08 November 2013.

It is (or was) at Rodley, Westbury-on-Severn. A housing estate appears to have been built on the farmland? Try Googling to see what else you can find!

Hi Chris thanks for that, it is the right place as I'm interested in the Malson family from the forest of dean. Liz

Hi Liz,
I'm sure you've already found this from googling, but Glos Archives carry the following record which will be worth seeing I'm sure
"Westbury-on-Severn: messuage and 2 tithing lands called Hutts in Rodley in Westbury-on-Severn, dated 1697"
http://ww3.gloucestershire.gov.uk/DServe/dserve.exe?dsqIni=Dserve.ini&dsqApp=Archiv...

Oddly I think, the same entry found via the National Archives website gives more detail, namely

"Westbury-on-Severn [no ref. or date]

[no title] D247/50 1697

Contents:
Messuage and 2 tithing lands called Hutts in Rodley in Westbury-on-Severn
(Malson, Launder, Crumpe)"

Archived under "Gloucestershire Deeds & Manorial Documents"
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/A2A/records.aspx?cat=040-d247&cid=-1#-1

Rodley was not just just a hamlet within Westbury parish, but a tithing, and part of the much larger manor of Rodley, so pinning its location down may not be straightforward.The 1697 document referred to is a renewal of a 1665 lease made as a marriage settlement upon Stephen Malson and Mary Launder. Possibly the earlier document will have a more detailed description of the location.

Of interest to me is where the marriage took place. I can't find it!
