I thought it said clean....that must be a Freudian slip and says a lot about the way my mind works  ;D ;D ;D
Thanks for the amendment.

Well I thought "clean home" was a strange thing to say! Glad that got sorted.

Obviously the writer was not intending to mail the card or else it was sent with something else.

I fear this is going to end up like Cazza's house # 12

Like Arthur, my first thought was that this might be a rectory - it may be just the windows which give that impression.

"Conservatory" on the left, no visible front door or entryway - might this be a view of the side of the house? ...  :-\

Sadly no clues in the Spaniel and the Jack Russell.  :)

Thanks Ruskie for your thoughts...I thought it was a greenhouse but you could be right...I don't think this one would be solved...as you say...it looks like it is a side view. I will keep looking around the King's Lynn/Norfolk area but I don't hold out much hope  :-\

No help at all, but who, I wonder, would have a fountain pen filled with red ink to hand.

Banker, solicitor, or someone who lived in a big house ;D

Good afternoon

Could it be a nursing home in North Wales?

Is that before or after the demolition/rebuild of 1906ish ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
