Hi All
I have just joined too, and am interested in Nore House and its history.
I think I now live in the 'other' property that was adjacent to Nore House, and which was used as staff quarters when it was an orphanage. We acquired the building when the developers had finished building on the site having pulled the main house down.
I would love to know more of the history and see any photographs should anyone have any. My friend actually worked at the orphanage for a while and is looking to see if she has any pictures.
If your enquiries have made any progress that you can share, please get in touch.
Regards.
I remember a building opposite the front door but within the grounds at nore house. I can remember going in that building once and seeing a tombola,crepe paper and other such trimmings. I believe it was used as a store room for such things. Please, please, please has anyone got a picture of that lovely old house? Regards from steve
