Interesting to read about Eastwick house. Not much seems to be known about it. I went to school with one of the occupants sons in the sixties and have fond memories of visiting the house. It was rather a ramshackle house divided into two parts with Mr Lancaster and his wife and daughter living in one half and my friends family in the other. I remember the winter of 1963 after walking to the house drying my wet freezing socks on a oil stove,  unfortunately they melted. The grounds were very large with a circular drive and a lodge or stable house. I seem to remember an old rail carriage at the bottom of the garden, perhaps I'm wrong. The family would put on plays in one of the rooms and I remember the "Cavern" in the cellar. I have photos taken on the roof but I cannot remember how we got there. When I drive into the housing estate, which was built in the late sixties I imagine the old house standing there.
