I've had no luck finding the darned place either and I've even resorted to using words such as historic, wedding venue.

It crossed my mind that this scene could be the rear of a house and most images I've seen are of house frontages.  Bearing in mind that every generation modernises their home I'm wondering if the front and the rear of the house were built in different centuries, and as the front is often the one to be updated there's every possibility that one of us has dismissed the house as not being the correct one.

And this might have been the case even when first built, as already mentioned.  The house in the photo is in a very plain gothic revival style, the front may well have been something much fancier.

WOW..... :o :o :o :o what a star...I never thought in my wildest dreams that this one would be found after the many hours put in by so many Rootschatters on this topic!!! I am over the moon...your dogged determination has paid off...again  ;D 
My OH said he doubted that it would be found as there was so little to go on...and I said if Yorkslass can't find...then it's not out there.
Thanks so much  :-* :-*
