Well done. So does that move the search to  Hertfordshire?

Noytd refers to the St Albans picture in reply #25 but seems to think it doesn’t have relevance to the search  :-\

Strange, I thought Hertfordshire. I saw some similar houses in the St Albans area but not enough detail to give a definite match.

I don't think it is that one, Roger - the gables on Shoreham Place look to be more pointed than on the one behind the lady and her horse  ???

That was my concern,too.I thought the gables on the posted house were a little more "Dutch".
