Question from Gary webmaster November 2006

I have taken a few photographs of the old house on Church Street being demolished   I intend to put a little bit on the web site news page and also for the Baipip archives. I wondered if you had any details about its history that I could use and its proper address.

Reply from Richard

Hello Gary
Yes it was a good house shame it had to go. A Miss. Watson lived there for some time. It was built about 1930. The 1919 Ordnance Survey map does not show it, but the 1938 one has the house marked. Hope this is useful.
Regards
Richard
