Full Description

Hop pickers’ huts to the northwest of Mill Place Barn, Yalding. First appear in the 1st edition OS map, suggesting they were likely constructed in the middle of the nineteenth century. The building is visible in the 1940s aerial photographs, though not in the 1990 photographs, suggesting it was probably abandoned in the second half of the twentieth century.

Identified by the Historic Farmsteads Survey. (1)
