has anyone got a photo or any info of the old cottage that used to be on the corner of the wreck on mistress lane. there are a couple of houses on the spot now. I know it was there in early 70's. as you look at the map with mistress lane at the top, the cottage was in the left top corner. My aunty used to live there when I was a child. I seem to remember there was secret tunnels in the walls. My aunty was Ivy wright.

Tyke bhoy, when you do the advanced search from the menu on the left, change record view to 50 and ask for gallery view in the view box, that the bottom two options.Hope that helps

Do you mean the house on the junction of Ley Lane/Mistress Lane. On the left looking down Mistress Lane. Opposite Rene Pages' shop? It was on the corner of the gardens, as we used to call it.

I seem to remeber there was a shop opposite and a path going down hill to the main road.

Several years of using Leodis and I never spotted that you could change the text option to thumbnail(with text) or gallery (of thumbnails)

If you look at the 4th pic, was the cottage to left and behind the photographer? I used to live on Mistress Lane and that's the only cottage I remember. What years are we talking about here?
