Hi Val, I wonder if your husband remembers roughly when they were demolished because I'd like to see what they looked like, and the later the demolition I guess the greater chance of locating any old photographs! TL

Hi Paul remembers then being there when he was about 17. He was born in 1942 so he thinks about early 1960's they were still there.There is an industrial site about where they were. Its not far from the Honda garage mentioned earlier but on the opposite side of the road. Sorry no photos. Val

Having just had major shoulder surgery and am very limited on the computer, I was surfing and found this site. Lots of records hope somebody finds something useful. On the site you can add messages, perhaps it may be worth asking if anybody has any pictures of the cottages. I will ask about when I am back on my feet again. Val

Hi, have still being trying to research the old school without too much success as yet, but one thing that did crop up was that the sixth form house at the old Lutterworth Grammar school site is named Auburn Place. Maybe there is some scholarly connection in this... or perhaps someone just liked the name!

Hi, for all those who have an interest in this topic. I was browsing in the local bookstore when I came across a small book with photos of Enderby, Narborough and Littlethorpe. One photo was named Auburn Road, Fosse, Narborough dated 1907,and showed a large Victorian building with several tall arched windows. It stated that it was being used as a convent at that time, but I wondered if perhaps this might have been the building that was previously the school? TL
