Mill farmhouse (now known as Mill House) is older than New House farmhouse. It is perhaps in origin a longhouse, that is, built to house family and animals under one roof, and was extensively remodelled early in the 17th century. It was part of the estate of the Verney family, who possessed the Manors of Tytherington and Itchington. The first recorded tenant was James Pullen, who died in 1690. That he lived at Mill Farm is shown by the inventory of his goods made at his death, in which the room-by-room listing correlates closely with Mill farmhouse but with no other house in the village. The inventory shows clearly that he was a man of substance, with four-poster beds upstairs, with curtains, the fashionable coffee-pot in the kitchen, and with social ambitions, for the will specifically mentions the Silver Cup given by 'my Lady Allington' and another from Sir Richard Ashfield Baronet. His assessment for the Poll Tax of 1673 was by far the highest in the parish. It seems likely that the family, a hundred years or so before, had joined in the prosperous cloth trade of the Stroud region. The clothiers provided the capital, undertook the preparation and the finishing of the cloth, while the wool was spun and woven by families in the village.
OS Map surveyed 1878 revised 1901 showing New House Farm and Mill Farm.
Around 1600, many men in Tytherington were employed in weaving and by 1700 the village was still busy with cloth making as well as farming. Older maps show a layout of ponds around Mill Farmhouse similar to those at other cloth mills — a reservoir (fed by the leat along Duck Street) to store water to work the fulling hammers, and a field under the eye of the clothier — where the cloth could be dried. Many clothiers became rich; James Pullen even by 1667 is described as `Gentleman', no longer yeoman or clothier, and by the time of his death he was perhaps enjoying a comfortable retirement. His possessions were valued at £277 6s 11d, but not included was the value of a house in Tytherington which he owned.
We know that a John Hobbs lived at the `Malthouse', close by in Duck Street, early in the 1600s. The Hobbs family was prominent in t area, involved in the cloth trade, farming and as landowners. It is tempting to speculate that the Pullens at Mill Farm and the Hobbs at Malthouse had co-operated as clothiers. Perhaps Mill Farm had the water supply necessary for the washing of the wool and the fulling of the woven cloth, but was itself unsuitable or inconvenient for other processes such as shearing. Was it a Hobbs who rebuilt New House Farm in the heady days of the early 1600s, as farm and home, and to provide weaving and shearing facilities to supplement what already existed at Mill Farm? New House built, did John Hobbs move from Malthouse, to be followed in turn by his son Edward, his grandson John and his great- grandson Edward, all clothiers? The initials I H carved on a beam at New House may well be those of John Hobbs (1656-1701), and is it no more than coincidence that elaborate decorative plasterwork on beams at Mill Farm is identical with that on the beams at NewHhouse?
At this point, it seems fairly certain that the ownership of New House passed to Edward's aunt Mary on the death of his parents in 1701 and 1705. Mary had married William Pullen of Mill Farm, and had three sons and several daughters. On William's death, she remarried and lived at Bromwich's in West Street (now Porch House). Her eldest son John, who seems to have been somewhat dissolute, probably continued a while with the tenancy of Mill Farm. It was not long before he had mortgaged his inheritance. The middle son, William, died on the eve of his marriage. James, the youngest, in all probability moved to New House farmhouse, (vacant after the death in 1705 of his widowed aunt Elizabeth Hobbs), when he married Mary Berry in 1708; and it may well have been he who carved 'JP 1712' on a beam.
James Pullen, in his will of 1690, declares that he and his neighbour Edward Hobbs were 'great friends' and this perhaps endorses the suggestion that the Hobbs and the Pullens had worked together through the 17th century in the making of cloth in Tytherington. But this was the peak century of prosperity for the cloth industry in these parts outlying from Stroud. The Hobbs family, associated with Tytherington and Itchington since at least 1327, was moving away. The Pullens were reverting to farming; they continued at New House for another hundred years, until in 1822 the heiress married a Cornock, while another branch of the family at about the same time moved to Itchington and is farming there still.

Q: Azure Batch and API Job ADD: upload file in wd directory with I'm using API Job Add to create one Job with one Task in Azure Batch.
This is my test code:
{
    "id": "20211029-1540",

            }
        ]
    }
}

To execute the API I'm using Postman and to monitor the result I'm using BatchExplorer.
The job and it's task are created correctly, but the 'wd' folder generate automatically is empty.
If I understood fine, I should see the linked file in the storage variable, right?

Maybe, some other parameter is needed in the Json of the body?
Thank you!

A: Task state of completed does not necessarily indicate success. From your json body, you most likely have an error:
        "resourceFiles": [
            {
                "storageContainerUrl": "https://linkToMyStorage/MyProject/StartTask.txt"
            }

You've specified a storageContainerUrl with a file. Also ensure you have provided proper permissions (either via SAS or a user managed identity).

Chelsea really don't need to worry.
Well, the first two games of the Premier League season have been played and Frank Lampard has a single point for his efforts. And while Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City all have maximum points, I really don't think Chelsea have a huge amount to worry about. The results haven't been what was wanted but there has been much to be positive about.
The performances have held a lot of promise for the future, once the team is fully up to speed. Now that may seem a ridiculous thing to say, Chelsea played seven pre-season games. Surely they were up to speed and ready to go. But, as Pat Nevin noted, very few of the players played a full game and even fewer more than once. That may be because Lampard was trying out different systems and players to see what worked well and what needed improvement.
It also hasn't helped that some players who will be heavily relied upon have been recovering from injury or returned late from international duties. Willian, Antonio Rudiger, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Reece James are all going to have parts to play this season. Rudiger, Loftus-Cheek and Hudson-Odoi all had very good seasons under Sarri and Lampard will look to use their renewed presence to push the squad onward.
Much has been made of the departure of David Luiz. I will say that the only factor I find irritating is that he moved to one of our biggest rivals. His experience will be missed, but from what both he and Lampard have said, he would not have been a first choice pick and it was decided he could move on. It was very clear that Chelsea physically could not compete with Leicester in the second half yesterday and with another week of work on the training pitch will see them more towards where Lampard wants them to be.
The style of play Lampard is going for is evident from the three competitive games we have seen. He clearly wants a high energy press akin to Liverpool, and while that may wield results over time, the players need to become familiar with it. Lampard is also hampered by Chelsea's transfer ban and so he has not been able to strengthen in key areas. Namely the striker. Chelsea have lacked a striker guaranteed to score 20+ goals a season since Diego Costa was shown the door by Antonio Conte. But the opening 25 minutes against Leicester and the performances if not the results have demonstrated to me at least that once some of the key, influential players return from injury, and if the likes of Mason Mount continue to seize the opportunities that Lampard will give them throughout this season, I see no reason to panic.
The times where Chelsea simply went through seasons sacking managers are over to an extent. Jurgen Klopp was given time and was backed in the transfer market. He didn't win a trophy as Liverpool manager until last season but every season, we saw a progression until they were serious competitors to Manchester City. So, if Chelsea can't back Frank Lampard in the transfer market, they should give him time. Patience hasn't been Chelsea's virtue since Roman Ambramovich bought the club, but they might benefit if they can learn it now.

>What a blessing to have a family!
I think it was the first time for over 20 years that I did not preach on the "day of Pentecost".
I had been invited to a few places but I choosed to help my daughter Magdalena to move in to her new apartment instead. In Stockholm Sweden. It was one of the best "day of Pentecost" that I had in my life. Early Sunday morning I wake up in our summer house to find that Rebecka,Fredrika and our grand son, Noah where staying with us. I spent the morning enjoying there fellowship playing with Noah. After that I took care of our new tenants in Jonkoping and from there I drove up north to Stockholm. I was stopped by the police due to a little bit of speeding but he forgot about me(!!!!) and caught some other speed offenders instead! I was happy for that and still wonder why he ignored me.
We missed Vivianne yesterday but I will pick her up at the airport late tonight.
I am so blessed to have a family and it is great to see Gods blessings!!
