This feature is recorded in the English Heritage Historic Area Assessment for St Mary Hoo Parish. The report states:"On the east side of the parish several loose clusters of farmsteads and farmworkers cottages had developed. One was Bell's Farm and a small development of three pairs of cottages with substantial gardens known as Coombe Houses and therefore presumably associated with Coombe Farm". The OS historic maps show the three paired cottage buildings to the west of Bell's/Shakespeare's Farm (map 1929-52) but the cottage site now appear to be under landfill. (1)
