Alfred purchaesd land at the end of what is now Staces Road, where he ran a dairy farm. Staces Road was formed in 1889 at a cost of £210, but Alfred and other settlers on the road had to pay 1/7th penny in the pound on the rateable value of their properties to replay the loan. The home was later occupied by the Gosling family.
