My Gran and Grandad (Mr and Mrs Doman) lived in one of the cottages next to kingham House in the late fifties early sixties, next door to a Mr and Mrs Cole. They had a son called Cyril. Does any one remember them or have any old photos? My Grandad used to work for Monkton Combe school and I believe the house was owned by the school and when he retired they moved to De Montault Cottage at the bottom of the 66 steps.
This House is in Summer Lane at the top of 66 steps adjacent to the old Kingham Quarry, where undoubtedly its name was acquired.
