A map of Little Buckland Farm in a nineteenth century estate atlas shows a building on Lord Vane's land at Little Buckland in 1804. (1) This appears to be the same as the building at Little Buckland shown by Beale Poste in 1858. (2)
This can therefore also be identified with the part of Little Buckland belonging to Lord Vane in the eighteenth century identified by Hasted. (3)
