This is from Roderick Miller; 'In about 1956 King's built 3 new houses across the yard, Perkins at No 1, us in No2 and Eric King and his wife and son Derek in No 3. Eric was King's Sec but not related to J K Kings which was owned by The Nicholls who lived opp St Peters Church. Nos 1 & 2 were conjoined all faced West with views up to Highlands Farm. Mr Shepheard was the postman and on us moving to the new houses he was at a loss for an address so Mother suggested "Kings Acre" and so thusly it happened, Kings Acre it became to this day.
