Dear mufc99

First of all let me apologies for the long delay in replying to your message. It really is too bad of me.  Your posting should have been treated with much more respect, and I'm cross with myself for allowing this mistake to happen.

Thank you very much for all this excellent and detailed information and for all the trouble you have taken - Rootschat has brought in so much help of which I am most grateful.

Best wishes
Ray


 

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.
