These photographs and documents relating to the life in East Meon of the Noyce family were provided to us by Belinda Moffat, daughter of Ernest Noyce junior. His father, also Ernest, came from Soberton to Orchard Farm, Ramsdean in 1908. He married Eva Merritt, who had lived at Brooklyn, and bought Colchenna which had been built in 1912. His children were Lucy and Ernest junior.
As well as farming Colchenna, both Ernests managed the farm at Bereleigh.
