History of Amelia Trust Farm
History
Historically ‘Whitton Rosser Farm’ was owned by Sir Leoline Jenkins, a Cowbridge man who became Secretary of State to Charles II and principal of Jesus College, Oxford. In 1685 he bequeathed the farm to Jesus College and it was worked by tenant farmers until it officially became the home of Amelia Methodist Trust in 1991.

The blue print for the Trust began in the early autumn of 1988, with work not starting until September 1991. A process of transformation involving hundreds of volunteers and a small team of management and staff, taking a site knee high in mud with part derelict buildings to what can be found today.
