Photograph of feeding the ducks at Windmill Leaze Farm Lydiard Tregoze during the 1920's. The farm was part of the Lydiard Park estate and had been owned by Viscountess Bolingbroke since her husband's death in 1899. It was tenanted and subsequently purchased by the Rumming family in 1943 when the estate was finally broken up.

After acquiring the farm Frank Rumming renamed it Park Farm. The family continue to farm there to this day.
