Littlehempston

In the 1960s Park Hill House, Littlehempston, was owned by Mr Robert Grant. One of the bedrooms was known as the grey room and was never used as it was apparently haunted. Every January the family picked numerous bunches of snowdrops from their garden, packed them in boxes and sent them by rail to be sold at Covent Garden Market. They also sold vegetables grown in the large walled garden. DRA 1371 LH 001
