The property was renovated sometime between 2011[3] and 2019,[4] a process that removed its pebbledashing.
In 2014, a planning application was made to demolish three barns and erect six dwellings on the property, but the application was later withdrawn.[5]
An 1890 Lancashire and Yorkshire Victorian railway carriage body was acquired from the farm by Poulton & Wyre Railway Society in 2023.[6][7]
