 Jools, I was looking at the newspaper archives and searched with the description ‘castle house’. There was a family notice which mentioned Castle House, Tunbridge Wells. I then searched for that on Google and up popped the Manor House along with several others!

I’m so glad this has been identified. Good on you Trish!  ;D As is usual with these finds, I am thrilled to see that it is still standing.

Beautiful photos in Arthur’s link.

Wow! Thanks so much Trish and for the informative link on its rich history. I'm thrilled that it is still standing and the photo appears to have been taken in the 1950s. I feel a future trip to Tunbridge Wells could be arranged  ;D
Thanks to all those who showed an interest and joined in the search  :-*
I would warn you though, there is another unknown property pending, so watch this space.
