Cheshire / Re: Childrens Home, Bowdon

Could this be the answer you were looking for.
In approximately 1994 there was a development 'Richmond Green' by P J livesey in a site off Richmond Road, Bowdon, WA14 2UB. The original property Ingledene I believe was a Childrens Home and was converted into 2 large semi detached houses. In the grounds was a modern small bungalow, built for a member of staff I think, which was demolished. In the grounds Livesey's built 4 detached properties, the fourth house was achieved when Livesey's bought some additional land from an adjacent property. Look at Google maps and I think all will be clearer.
By the way the owner of one of the two semi detached houses (half of the original Childrens Home) subsequently bought the adjoining property and converted the building back into a single dwelling, which is as it now remains although the owner sold the property about 3 years ago.
Hope this answers the question and perhaps solves the mystery - good luck.
PS - Chesham House was converted to apartments a couple of years ago.
