So it was just a normal house. has anyone any idea when the houses in Woburn Hill where built?
I went up there yesterday and if you know the area then the old Carlton cinema is at the end of Green lane, next to it is the old Venue night club. next to the venue is a very nice white victorian house, set back in grounds. used as a home of some sort.well it used to be, i got a right shock to see boards up around it. i looked through and they have flattened it. took away a cracker house for whatever they are building on the venue ground, flats i think. im really shocked they could just knock the house down, shame on them
hi gnomie,
like you, i was shocked to see what was, "Ozanam" house flattened!! (that name was,until quite recently, over the doorway) it was one of a series of georgian houses along that part of Green lane which i thought, would be listed, or have some type of preservation order, but apparently not! Do you know much about the history of that area? it looks like it may have been a quite well to do place, at one time, and ironically, there's recently been a couple of million spent on the church,just opposite!
