Liverpool Daily Post: Tuesday 7th July 1936

English Estate: Sold for £20,800: Mr. Henry F. Cubb, a London Surveyor, of Victoria Street, London, yesterday bought for £20,800 the former country seat of Mr. Samuel Insull, the American. It is known as Pincent’s Farm Estate, Theale, near Reading. It is understood that Mr. Insull has no interest in the farm. He was a tenant there from 1924 until a few years ago and used it on his visits to this country. Mr. Cubb told the Daily Post last night that he had bought the estate on behalf of a British investment syndicate. The farm of about 360 acres, he added, would be developed on “good lines” – not as a housing site. It might possibly be used for week-end cottages.
