Only this morning have I found a photograph that shows the Brook House and the greenhouse together. Apologies for the length of time it has taken, you wouldn't believe how many photographs I have sorted through saving some and throwing others away. This I believe was taken in 1939 (even before I was born 1943), showing several cold frames, and what appears to be a growing area. The latter was once a Lily Pond later becoming a rose garden. Out of the picture at the bottom was a tennis court - the brook ran parallel to the court and the wood was behind it. My problem now is to upload the photograph!
