I'm not sure when it was demolished, we left in 1969/70 ish, possibly a couple of years after that. The house was split in two when we were living there, we lived in the half that had twelve rooms, there were (in our half) two attics, on first floor the biggest bathroom "I've ever seen, a bath you practically needed a step ladder to get into (slight exaggeration) a shower, (an airing cupboard, again very large) there were two doors either end, one of these led to the "playroom" and back stairs. There was a long corridor leading off from the bathroom to a further large bedroom. On the same floor a large bedroom and a smaller one (dressing room). On the ground floor, a study, very large sitting room/dining area, kitchen, wash room, boiler room and a pantry.
Outside the back area were garages, and usual out buildings, a wood at the back, extensive rear gardens. A coach house and stables (I think) a blind man and his wife rented the house there.
At the front, you will see when I scan in photos, the extensive lawns, a monkey puzzle tree, orchard, the house front had a drive around a huge yew tree. At the side where Mr & Mrs lancaster used to live were greenhouses and a lovely loggia.
I have the original delft tiles that were inside the fireplace, depicting religious scenes (even a stoning!)
Our relatives used to love coming down from London, going wooding, my mum had been an excellent cook (sadly she now has dementia) but I did take photographs for her to look at of Eastwick and she remembered...bless her.
I will be in touch soon with photographs
All the best

We grew up in wonderful surroundings! My older brother (one of them) converted the cellar into a "Cavern" much to the annoyance of my very strict father - Beatle mania had hit Evesham!
