The plaque is on the front of a large farm house. The farm is located between Whisper Lane and Hanchurch Lane in Hanchurch.
The building has the date 1808 on a plaque with a picture of a crown above it. There was no clear evidence of a farm name, however there was a name on the gate that looks like 'Model' but it had been white washed out. It appears to be part of a large farm with other building located further along the lane. The front of the property is three floors high with the top floor windows bricked up.
There is a farm named Model Farm at the location of the building shown on the map included in the photo gallery.
