Also across the road from forge cottages was a large manor house with a high wall and gardens this was again demolished in the early 1970s.A village was destroyed for progress all for nothing as Hanley Page went broke. hope this is of some help Bruce MatthewsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09740503320230012909noreply@blogger.com
