Scan of photo from the book William Cole of Milton showing the east side of Milton House. It still existed in 1932 when this photo was taken but we’re not entirely clear where it was located. The author writes:
“In Cole’s time a small farm went with [Milton House], consisting of six acres of meadow about the house, eight acres of fenland and holt, and eight acres of arable in the open field. […] The small, three-bayed thatched barn which he used still stands.
From the lane running alongside Milton House and garden the buildings belonging to Cole’s farm can be seen, and his meadow beyond. The barn with the double doors was built by him and contained his threshing floor. The slit windows date from his time. The lean-to thatched roof on the right of the picture was either Cole’s summer house or his potting shed.

“On Maundy Thursday [1770] Coles notes that Tom [Cole’s man-of-all-work] was at work on the “Beaufette” in the kitchen. This kind of cupboard, which was usually seen in the parlour of farmhouses, is still in the kitchen of Milton House.
