Was wondering if anyone out there knows of the whereabouts of Little Conigree Farm, Mitcheldean, or if it is still in existence. I have come across a photo of my mother as a girl, taken round about 1924-26 and someone has written on the back "Little Conigree Farm, Mitcheldean".

Conigree leads me towards Newent, rather than Mitcheldean.

Thats what I thought, but the family came from the Plump Hill area and lived in Jubilee Road. Unless they were visiting.

..if they were visiting

any family connections to Ledbury or Melksham / Trowbridge ?

No, I haven't come across any family in those areas.

My mother's family were all round the Mitcheldean / Longhope areas.

This property is listed for sale on Zoopla . The aerial photo shows a farm in the immediate vicinity . It seems to me it might be a fairly typical 'Dean spelling change

Little Conigre, Jubilee Road, Mitcheldean GL17 0EE

Thanks for that, this is highly likely to be the place, as my mother's family used to live in Jubilee Road.
