History
Ann Darlington is the current tourism manager at Hall Hill Farm. Her grandparents came to the farm in 1925, and now her brother David Gibson runs the working farm. Hall Hill Farm opened to the public in 1981 after their father, Jack Gibson, suggested allowing the public to see the farm's lambs, following an interest over that Easter period.
