Yes, I've seen several pictures of Upton House - but it's "Fair View" that I wanted to know more about - Upton House's next door neighbour.

If that is right it was also called  Paddington Green Children's Hospital Convalescent Home. That would fit with all the open windows wouldn't it?

Reading this, I think that Paddington Green C. H was a different entity http://ezitis.myzen.co.uk/paddingtongreen.html

Yes, but it does say further down the page that a Convalescent Home opened at Fair View, Upton Road, Slough, in 1901.

This may clarify the situation. You need to read the text on the right hand side down to, and including the paragraph which starts "Upton Court was rented -"

That seems to say that Fair View was in Albert St - no large houses there now though
