Sunday 11 November 2012 19:15:00. Does anyone remember a house called "Lone Oak" in Cormongers Lane? I think it was demolished around the early 1960's. As the name implies, it had one Oak tree in the front garden, and was quite a large house. Comment 2 Nancy Davison from

Thursday 27 December 2012 16:58:00. Thank you for replying, that sounds really interesting. I'd love to see a photograph of Loneoak if you can find it sometime. My partner lived there for approx 10 years from around 1952 - 1959. He has fond memories of the house and grounds, and is trying to research into his family's roots etc. Kind Regards.

Friday 04 January 2013 17:57:00. My family, the Cutcliffes, were the sole occupants of Lone Oak from 1936 to 1956 (last date approx). So maybe your partner may have known our family in which case I may be able to help with information. Comment 5 Maggie Payne from

Sunday 06 January 2013 18:15:00. Thanks for replying. My partner tells me that he, his sister and parents moved to Loneoak around 1956 (he thinks he was around 12 years of age) - approximate dates. So probably he and his family were the next occupiers after the Cutcliffes, although he doesn't remember that name. He does remember Mr & Mrs Stone and their daughters Pat & Wendy who lived opposite the Stable Block. It would be interesting to hear any more memories, and also any photographs that you may have. Many thanks for you time. Comment 6 Steve Pratley from

It would be great to find some photos of the old places around that area. Yes, I did used to be a keen biker in those days. I hope I didn't cause you too much trouble!!

Tuesday 27 August 2013 19:33:00. Hello Nancy Davison: We would be very interested in seeing a photo of Lone Oak from the time that you lived there and to make contact with you. I am helping my friend, Veronica, with tracing her family history. She is the niece of Reginald Mervyn Athelstan Davison and she remembers meeting you and your daughter - probably at Lone Oak - when she was a little girl along with her twin sister and older sister. If you pick this up, please email us at v.trenchard@btinternet.com. Many thanks - Janie |

Friday 23 September 2016 09:25:00. I was born at Chilmead Farm in 1949 and Fred Arnold (above) was my grandfather. I remember being given pushed down the lane in my pram by Mable Bassett and I remember the milking she'd and the bull in the yard. I also spent many happy hours on the back of the tractor and riding the cows back from the field for milking. We used to visit the Stevens family who lived in the cottage on the bend of the lane. I have a photograph of the farmhouse and photograph of my grandfather that was in the national news when he found the body of gentleman who had committed suicide. Comment 9 Chris Stevens from

Monday 14 May 2018 01:02:35. Somebody must remember the stately house close to Chilmead Farm. Owned by the Reeves family. They most likely owned the farm at one time.
The house was not on Cormongers Lane but on the road heading across the marsh. Comment 11 John Elphick from
