I'll look for "Agent's House" What time frame did you hear of it -? Any particular names you are looking for??
Shall I just post full details of house either side?
Suz

1861 census William Gilstrap is in Nottinghamshire
1871 Fornham Hall is listed as "The Hall" no addresses given for houses either side
1871 Hall listed as "Hall Park" no names of either side -in vicinity Lodge Gate House Clay hill
so if you are looking for a person it would help to have a name
