Blousic Farm

Blousic Farm

Blousic farm stood at the corner of Wellingborough Road and Fitzwilliam Street.

It is an ancient name coming from Blosyk first noted in 1403 as a dike. There have been many variant spellings over the centuries such as Blowsick.

As a noted dairy they supplied much of the town with milk during the 20th century. In 1937 the partners in the business were M. Mayes, W. E. Willmott and A. E. Willmott, and they traded from the Blousic Dairy as Alfred Willmott.
