Convalescent Home Primrose Valley, Filey: A memory of Filey

Convalescent Home Primrose Valley, Filey

A Memory of Filey.

Can anyone help? I have been trying to find information about the convelescent home at Primrose Valley in Filey. I believe I was sent there in the 1950's but nothing's coming up on the web. I was sent there to convalesce after many throat infections. I was chatting to someone who lived in Filey but had no idea of the place I was speaking about.

Hello my sisters and we're sent their in 1967 the home was still standing back in 2010 sad to say not a great experience
For three little girls aged 5 7 10
Our father had died and mum was had just given birth to our new baby sister
Mum must have needed time to adjust
I don't think I have ever got over the feeling of abandonment. Many children came and went during our time there
Boys and girls all had their own reasons for being there.

Hi. I thought the home was called Habershon House. Used to be a convalescent home but was later used by Rotherham Council as a study centre for children. It seems now though that Bourne Leisure/Haven are about to raise it to the ground so that they can put 17 static caravans on the site.
Grrrr!!!!!
