They are the third generation to live in the farmhouse originally bought by Amanda’s family in 1921 to take advantage of the Wealden Clay soil, so suited to grass fed dairy cows, and the expanding market for milk provided by the “milk trains” from Sussex to London.

Amanda started her career in London as the NFU Information Division’s Assistant Press Officer in the early eighties when stubble burning, increasing Commodity Mountains and escalation of UK CAP contributions were big issues for farming leaders of the day. She has also worked in the fresh produce sector for a Sussex subsidiary of Hazlewood Foods and has been involved in marketing projects in Landmark throughout its thirty years of trading.  

She works part-time but closely with the Landmark Managers who are individually responsible for Development, Sales, Training, Support and Administration.  They aim to inform, innovate for and maintain the comprehensive professional service provided to the myriad of UK farm, estate and property offices who rely on KEYPrime software for accurate, secure and live information records on which to base their business decisions.
