Children's Home in Shenfield - around 1965 - 1969

I wish to communicate with anyone who may remember a children's home that used to be located on a large field in Shenfield.

The individual wood and brick 2 floored (Swiss styled I think) homes were dotted around the perimeter and of different names. One I know was called 'Thames.'

Children from the London Borough of Hackney were housed there.

I believe there was an Infant or Primary school nearby and the children's home was not far from a small garage with one or two petrol pumps in the dip of the main road!

I believe there was also a field and forested area not too far away.

Anyone who may have memories, photos or can help would be appreciated.
