JohnTOConnor1954 - Can I ask what the house was like when you went? Did you take any photos.? Are the occupiers receptive to people knocking on the door or are there specific procedures you have to follow?
I was born there in 1968 and was fortunate enough not to be put up for adoption. My mum hardly talks about her experience there.
Hi  Here are a couple of links that you may have already seen regarding Assissi.

Enjoy the sunny weather  Hope these links are of some use
Sorry i didn't answer your question, The owner was friendly and offered to show me the grounds but i didn't want to impose really.As their home was for sale i assume they no longer live there and it was about 10 years ago now..Good luck x

Hi Claire, thank you so much.  It was that Home.  I have just googled Hammer Lane and recognise it just as I had described it as being a long narrow lane.  Have tried to search if there are any pictures of the Home but can't find anything as yet.  There appears to be some houses there now or possibly apartments.

Once again thank you for your time and help.

Kind regards

Kathryn

Hi Clare.  Boy it's hot today.  Thanks for responding.  I would be grateful if you could email me the details please.  Out of interest what details does the record give in relation to the mother?

Look forward to hearing from you.

I take it that you still have my email address?

Kindest regards to you and your family.

Kathy x
