All that remains of Reddaford Farm is a standing slab of granite which was part of the fireplace.
The military purchased the land around Willsworthy in the early 1900's to create a live firing range, Reddaford Farm was situated right in the line of fire, so it was also purchased by the army.
There is documentation to show there was a farm here as early as 1242, the last occupants were the Palmer Family who left in 1908.

See link for much more detail and old photos of the farm.
