Hello,

I am hoping you may be able to help me.

My friends have just purchased the old barn in Meresborough, Rainham. I would so like to give them a gift of the History of the Barn, who owned and it purpose, any thing that would good.

Fingers crossed, you may help. I have been to libraries but not much help.

Regards

Mary
