Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

My Great Uncle and Aunt, Archibald “Arch” and Clara Meade, owned Badger Hall, Thundersley, around the turn of the 19th to 20th century. It was then described as having 22 acres of parkland and holding house parties and balls and being a centre of culture, in particular music and Greek. Unfortunately Arch kicked Aunt Clara out and she had to take up residence with her less well off mother at Leigh-on-Sea, otherwise I might now be a millionaire ! My refs are taken from two family books but both writers now deceased. I would be pleased to email anyone who can tell me more about the Meades at Badger Hall. Please contact me through the message service of this website.
