Aldercar Hall

Fascinating.

I have heard of Ms Alcock and her love of bantams. I am hoping that an article on Aldercar Hall which I have written will feature in this month's Society newsletter, giving the hall's story from the 1870's to the 1920's. I am also preparing a major new page for the main website on the same subject.

However, the period after the 1920's, until its demolition in 1962, is far more sketchy (though I have recently acquired photos of the demolition itself - a unique record, which I hope we will be able to publish in due course). So, any and everything you can give on this subject would be especially welcome. If you would like to write your memories in a way that can be turned into a newsletter item, just let me know (use the Mailbox system - just click on my name, then on Send Message) and I'll be happy to get it published under your name.

One thing my recent research has left me unsure of is whether she actually owned it or whether she was just a tenant of the Coal Board.
