A Memory of Winchelsea.

When I was born in 1949, my family were living in the above referenced house. Does anyone have any history on these houses, and perhaps who now owns 1?

Since posting in 2020 (no replies received) and further reading of my father's papers, I learnt the Five Houses were once owned by Miss Rosa Maria Kelly (stage name: Sybil Arundale born 1879 and died 1965). While my parents were on their honeymoon in the New Inn, Winchelsea they met Miss Rosa and she promised to let them know if one became available to rent. One did become available and so my parents moved into One, The Five Houses in 1947. Love to hear from anyone who has additional info.
