Research by Dennis Claydon

Kiln Hill Cottage as its was first called became officially named Datcha. It was in Kiln Lane.

From eyewitness reports, by the early years of the twentieth century ‘Kiln Hill Cottage’ had fallen into disrepair and become semi-derelict. Horses from the neighbouring field were said to enter looking for shelter, and the 1901 Census listed it as “Not in occupation’. It was following this period that the cottage came into the hands of Frederick Rogers, who restored the property.
