More about this scene

The first house on the left is a 16th-century timber-framed structure with an early 17th-century façade. Next door, several generations of the Hellis family, who were auctioneers, estate agents, builders and carpenters, traded from here. Their builders' yard at the rear was a former farmyard. The early 17th-century house on the right has an 18th-century exterior. For some 100 years it was the residence of successive members of one family: James Brooks came to Odiham in 1818 to join an attorney's partnership, and his descendants continued as solicitors in a purpose-built office in Church Street.

My parents lived in 'The Coachman's Cottage', which can be seen on the brow of the hill in King's Street, 1950-60. 'Lovelace' is almost opposite.
My Great, Great grandparents, John and Jane Crocker lived here in 1915 before they both died.
My grandfather, and his family came from Odiham. They lived at Bury Cottage until at least 1908. I am connected to the Peskett, Clark, Champion, Pink, Lee and Windiate families of Odiham. Regards, Andrew.
