Whythenshawe House
My grandmother was in service in a house in Saltwood. I have been trying for years to locate it but to no avail. All I know is the address is: Whythenshaw, Saltwood, Kent. I am assuming it was a house but it may not have been. If anyone can help solve the puzzle it would be very much appreciated.

The south gate with its twin arches is a remnant of the walls which once enclosed the town.
The enormous mosaic above the chancel arch was created in 1905 in memory of the churchwarden's wife.
With their ground floor bay windows, they could be from a much later period, and would not look out of place in the 1930s.
There are any number of pictures of the mills in the archive, but not a single one of the twenty-three arched railway viaduct straddling the valley of the Bollin.
By the mid-Fifties, Crown Square had taken on a much more urban appearance, with black and white kerb markings, a Belisha beacon on the right, and traffic signs in the centre of the
The nave of Tideswell church dates from the 14th century, and its size and standing give the building the air of a much larger church or even a cathedral.
