Rev. de la Pryme, writing in his diary of 1698 (cited in Tomlinson, p220),
says of Stainfarth '... town is nothing like what it was; there is now
neither Market nor Fair, nor not a good house therein but one, which is
lately built...". Tomlinson records that the house mentioned belonged to
Francis Elwick and cost £1,300 to build; in the C18 it passed by marriage to
the Simpson family. On the evidence it is reasonable to assume that Town End
Farmhouse is the house meant by de la Pryme.
