TOPHAM family of Whitecroft (General)

I wonder if Park Villa was originally Parkend Villa, built in 1840 by a quarry owner. It looks very similar but has probably changed structually over the years. If so it is now a b & b called 'Deanfields' I stayed next door when I visited in June. The house is situated opposite the village green in Parkend very close to the Woodman pub. Take a look at the house on their website 'www.deanfield.org.uk. If this is the house then a William White, the Iron Works Clerk, and his family lived there on the 1881 census. And of course its very close to Whitecroft. Hope this helps.
