Good afternoon all, I'm new to this site and I have to say I'm excited to hopefully find some answers to fill in some blanks or to find some additional photo's of the following property. I'm the great grand daughter of Frank Clissold who resided at a large, impressive property called 'Peterbrook' which I believe was on Peterbrook Road. The property comprised of a gardeners lodge/cottage at the front entrance which had a drive that took you to the property, it also housed stables, a lake and would of been a statement property for those that lived in the area. The property suffered a fatal fire which I believe happened in the 1970's, although it could be the 50's. My family were able to salvage some furniture and photos of which I am lucky to have in my possession, however if anyone could shed any light on further information about this property including photo's I would be extremely grateful. Thanks in advance! :)
