“The heritage of Codnor & Loscoe
By Fred S. Thorpe
Where the new “French Horn” public house now stands was the site of “Hall Farm” which was demolished in 1963. Dr Thomas Starbuck Woolley bought the “Hall Farm” and kept a room for surgery. His wife Alice Woolley planted the elm trees round the estate, which included the recreation Ground. The estate was sold by Mrs Woolley to the Butterley Company in November 1913, and the Butterley Company sold the land, which is now the recreation Ground, to Heanor Urban District Council in the early 1930’s number 14 Alfreton Rd, Codnor is called “Elm Villa” after the elm trees planted by Mrs Woolley at the bottom of the garden.

and at Crosshill Farm
Margaret Woolley was the last of the family to reside at “Crosshill House Farm” and when she died was buried at Crosshill on the 8th Jan 1931 aged 98 years. The estate at Crosshill then became under the ownership of Mr Charles Hill who left Mill Farm at Loscoe Grange to farm at Crosshill.
