Does anyone have access to the above register, who could check who lived in the Oastie Cottage of the The Oast, Fairbourne Manor, Fairbourne Lane, Harrietsham, Kent, ME17 1LN?

Understand it was residential accommodation, possibly for the oast or The Fairbourne Manor but have been told it was also used as a mushroom shop at sometime.
