Worgan family of Woolaston (General)

I have a book titled "Too Soon out of The Oven", Memories of Woolaston, by L. Hoskins.

On page 3 he writes, 'Burnt House Farm, Woolaston, where some of my characters congregated was burned down by Oliver Cromwell's men, but built up again some years later and it is said that the original building had a tunnel running from its cellar down to Colne Pill by the Severn and was used by smugglers.'

The book is probably out of print but worth a Google
