A few views to add to this thread. The photo refers to the Hall as ‘Bradford’ Hall, presumably named after the Earl of Bradford. Viv.
Hi Viv,
Lovely pictures - many thanks.
Several decades ago my son worked on the restoration of the gardens which were
at that time derelict.
This was referred to as the Dower House, being the residence of the Dowager
Lady Bradford, and when I lived locally was always referred to as 'Lady Bradford's.'
Apparently it was connected to the first telephone line in the area, to allow
communication between Queen Victoria and the prime minister of the day, who
frequently stayed there
Kind regards
Dave
