Ashwell Hall
A Memory of Finchingfield.
Does anyone remember Ashwell Hall which was in Great Bardfield (I think)? I was born there and my grandfather Mark Allen, and grandmother Alice lived there. My grandfather, worked for Captain Cook and ran the apple orchards, there were POW's working there - they were Polish (I think). My mother Rose Allen also helped out there, she also played piano at the local pub. I have been back and can't find Ashwell Hall - does anyone know if it still exists? My sister, Sheila Butt lived there as a child and has many happy memories of living there. My grandfather worked at the base when the americans were there. Any of your recollections of Ashwell Hall will be warmly received. Jan Clark (nee Butt)
