More useful to you, however, is that I'm a friend of your first cousin once removed Amanda Pelham-Burn - whose aunt Vera was your grandmother. Amanda would very much like to be in touch with you, so please email me your contact details at petegriffiths@ntlworld.com so that I can put you in touch with her.<br />Many thanks<br />Petey Gower GriffithsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14676484186603316724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705771450596300887.post-45599450684676964362017-03-25T23:40:25.370+00:002017-03-25T23:40:25.370+00:00I've read all of this with great interest.

Would you have the time to send me any information about my grandmother? Or any of the family. I am aware she , apparently, did not behave kindly but am keen to know anything. Thank you for your time.

We used to call it the haunted house. It was derelict and empty. I remember it had like a turret and was red brick with Ivy growing up around the walls. There were stables and outbuildings. There was a wall with a doorway onto the cliff. I always remember being fascinated about the story of the man who fell off the cliff on horseback. I think the grave is still on the grounds. It is a shame that such a beautiful old building was lost and there is very little photographs or information about it.John Connollynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705771450596300887.post-7069521204125093632015-01-14T23:14:55.054+00:002015-01-14T23:14:55.054+00:00Wish I could remember more, but... the last McIldo...Wish I could remember more, but... the last McIldowny died, his wife went to London - this would probably be in the 60s or late 50s, where she acquired rather a poor reputation. I have a feeling they had already separated before he died. Can just remember going to the house, I suppose early 50s, Wonderful location but unhappy atmosphere!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
