Durmans, later known as Middle Farm, was a farm at Middle Stoneham on the Stoneham Estate. It was named after the Durman family. It was surveyed by John Whitcher in 1818.

By 1837, the farm was partitioned into two. The southern portion, with Doncaster Cottage, was later joined with the farm buildings and yard formerly belonging to Park Farm, and renamed Doncaster Farm.

Tenants

  • Andrew Durman (1837[1], 1861[2]), a portion
