More about this scene
Situated in Rockingham Road, this grand building soon became a major landmark of the nascent industrial town when it appeared on the scene in 1936. Built of local limestone, with sash windows and an impressive multi-entranced facade, it had twenty bedrooms, central heating, private lock- up garages, a private lounge, a croquet lawn and a rose garden. It also offered two public lounges and an adjacent ballroom (out of view to the left), which were to provide vital leisure facilities for the rapidly expanding population of the town. Today it is known as the Raven Hotel.
