Goudhurst in Kent Village Guide

Family History


My late father grew up in Goudhurst, living at Higham Cottages, which from my research are in Ladham Road. His name was Leonard Boys, and his parents Constance and Arthur Leonard, known as Len I think. I remember visiting them as a young child. They lived in the left hand side of the two cottages as you faced them from the lane. My Aunt Betty and Uncle Sid Weekes lived on a farm I think called Worms hill farm although I haven’t managed to discover where this is. I thought it was in Goudhurst. I wonder if any of this infomation rings any bells with anyone? I would love to hear more if anyone can help.

    Further to my earlier message, I think I may have omitted to say that my father’s and grandparent’s surname was Boys. My father grew up in the village between 1923 and left to work in Eastbourne in about 1935. My name is Juliet Mcgregor and my contact details are [reveal email] . Thank you.
