Title: Brookside Bungalow, Dane Hill Sussex
Post by: Dolly_007 on Friday 11 July 08 22:47 BST (UK)

Hello,

Am curious, if this property is still standing ?.
It was the home in the late 1940's/early 1950's of Lil & John Nugent Harris.

Cheers
Dolly.

Don't know , but it's Danehill (one word) and the postcode is RH17 7H(?) as best I can see.

There is a village shop in Danehill so if you could manage to contact them I am sure they will know.  Isn't there a site that gives you post codes too?  Might be worth looking on that.

Hi Dolly
Not sure if you are still looking, but if so I will ask my dad as he was born in Danehill in 1933 and lived there until 2002 so knows where everyone lived.
Do let me know if you are still interested.
Regards
Ian

Hi Ian,

Yes please am still interested, Lil & John had a actress daughter Claire Harris, she passed away in 1949 a couple of years before her parents died.

Many thanks
Dolly.

Nothing listed under Brookside on the Royal Mail postcode site . 1968 OS map shows most properties with names and nothing on there

Good afternoon,

This may be the one, now called Old Brook Cottage I believe, https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.0334697,-0.0077422,3a,90y,165.77h,82.79t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sk4sjwwVQsiQvZpBTy553aA!2e0

Hi,

Many thanks for the replies, I tend to feel that the original name has since been changed after the family passed away .

Cheers
Dolly.
