Does anyone know much about the buildings that I've posted? The big old one is on a little Cul-De-Sac called Allerton Grange Walk, has this always been a big house? It's strange as there are no other houses as old as this on the estate that I can recall. Also, anybody know the story of the strange shaped white house on Allerton Grange Vale as it is completely different to all the others?Allerton Grange Walk:Allerton Grange Vale:

On the 1893 and 1908 OS maps there is a house marked Moor allerton hill which exactly corresponds in position, though not exactly the shape, to the building

seems quite strange they didn't demolish it when they demolished Moor Allerton Bottoms cottages. Looks like it would have been for someone with a decent amount of money back in the day.
