Thank you all for your replies. The Bilson House that is listed now is in about the right place but from what I've read isn't the same building. I suspect it may be a replacement, or at the very least a surviving portion of the old house. Maybe I should contact the company that's listed as occupying it now and ask them...

I know the house was taken over by the Coal Board after nationalisation (the previous owners, my family, were mine owners). I have got a whole series of old maps showing the location and shape of the building, and it's such a weird shape I thought it would be interesting to see it.

I'll certainly follow up all the leads you've given me. Many thanks again!
