Staffordshire / Re: Woodcroft in Leek
« on: Monday 22 April 24 19:50 BST (UK) »
Hello,
Are the Davenports listed here in relation to the Davenports of Woodcroft?
Little Longsdon was owned in 1816 by William Sneyd. (fn. 67) It was bought in 1851 by John Davenport of Westwood Hall, in Leek and Lowe, whose son George sold it in 1868 as part of the Westwood estate to John Robinson. (fn. 68) In the mid 1950s the Critchlow family bought the farm, and Mr. Harold Critchlow owned it in 1991. (fn. 69) The farmhouse is partly of the 17th century.
