'Home House' or 'Holme House' near Thornton-le-Moors, Cheshire.
« on: Saturday 01 June 19 12:36 BST (UK) »
Hi, An ancestor lived in a place written as, "the Home House" and "the Holme House" near Thornton-le-Moors and Dunham on the Hill in the 1760s and 1770s but I can find no trace of it. Can anybody shine any light on this ? Thank you.

Hi, did you ever have any luck finding any more info on Holme House Farm and whether your ancestors lived there? My reason for asking is that I work at the exact location of the farm and I find it fascinating that a totally different livelihood from oil refining existed there in the past.
Thanks in advance, Gary  :)

I’ve only recently discovered that Holme House Farm existed and on the map that Stan posted I walk through the old grounds several times everyday. Any info would be appreciated
