Hi,
I know this is probably not useful for your personal research, but my husband's great grand father is living at Winforton House in 1897 (as on marriage certificate) and his grandmother's birth certificate in 1898 states the birth address as Winforton House. The family name was Taylor (Herbert Ferguson Taylor & Doris Marion Mousely Taylor). I don't think they were living there for long as they are not in the 1891 census and I don't think that they were there in 1901 ( I can't remember off the top of my head)!
Herbert Taylor's profession is a farmer which is mysterious to us as we believed he was a seafaring man!
So I shall be interested to know if you find out anymore about the house.

Hello, Jill,
Thanks very much for the information and your insight.
The name of Herbert's wife was Mary Ellen Pearson nee Cooke ( this was her second marriage to Herbert). The Cookes were a farming family but in Rochford near Tenbury.
I am hoping to take a drive out that way when I have some spare time and take some photos, so I will let you know when I do. Sorry I can't reciprocate with any info for you.
Cheers. Lorraine.
