Messings Farm – originally in Birdbrook; then Steeple Bumpstead and now Cornish Hall End.

It was bought by the sons of Thomas Argent and Sarah Lewsy (George, Lewis, Thomas, William and Albert John) jointly. They retained their ‘day jobs’ and set about farming Messings in their spare time. Unable to afford a horse to pull a plough they bought a spade each and dug its area of about 80-100 acres by hand. Eventually a neighbour loaned them a horse having taken pity on their plight. Lewis and William were reputed to be the strongest two men ‘for many a mile’ at that time.

It is currently owned and farmed by Lewis' grandson John ARGENT son of Herbert Thomas ARGENT.
