People keep asking me what the cankfarm.com bit of my email means so i put something together. Cank Farm is about eight miles North of Northampton (map here ). Cank is an isolated farm on a hill between Spratton, Holdenby and Chapel Brampton in Northamptonshire England. The farm is a mile from a paved road and two miles from a major village. I lived there for 18 years.
The farm is part of the Althorp Estate. Between 1953 and 1992 Cank Farm was tenanted by the Perrin family. The Leeson family lived there from the 1930s to the mid 1990s.
