Maylands (1981)

Maylands Farm was in existence by 1420 and then called Mellonde.

Two fields beside the Brentwood Road were called Little and Great Dellams and were known in the Middle Ages.

In 1919, the tenant was Mr G. Gotheridge and the annual rent was £262, He purchased the farm that the same year.

During the 1930s, a civil aerodrome was built on the farm, which was run by a Mr Hillman, who organised aeroplane flights at 5/- a time.

By the turn of the 21st century, the old farm buildings were the headquarters of The Maylands Golf Club.
