A connection of mine owned this house, does anyone know if it still exists or does anyone have a photot of it. For a while it was owned by a Lewis Knight, who married the widow of Luin Knight. She was originally Sarah Ann Flux I believe. Any information would be appreciated.

Unfortunately the Google cameras don’t seem to have been along the road,
but all the evidence is that it’s still there.

Hi,

Yes the house still exists.

Have just seen your posting. I have family connections to this house and a photograph. Email me if you would like me to share my information.

Hello

I am the owner of Sandford House in Aylburton. It still very much exists!

I am trying to trace the history of my house, and would be grateful if you could get in touch. I know who several of the previous owners were but would be grateful to hear of your connection.

Best wishes,

S

If you provide your email address, we could talk about it

In the late 1800s a farmer called William Rudge owned the house and there is an engraving of a name in a window pane "Lilian Rudge" to this day....
