Ninevah Farm it is - now under water in its entirety having been dug away and flooded. Thanks for the location, we'll update the catalogue and post the new record here in due course.

Eureka I can identify the location of this series of two photos having examined the 1953 1:10560 for the area. The latest 1:50000 is more difficult because the area is almost a kilometre square with no features at all!
