The construction looks very similar to my house, so about the same time, circa 1920. I think It is the White House opposite the Conservative Club, corner Long Road and Convent Road.

Could this have been occupied by Doctor Stevens, especially during WW11,???

I lived in this house from 1994 until 2013. It was built by Horace Fielder for his mother Anne Fielder. It originally had a tennis court in the back garden. I bought it from Maureen Blaney who had lived there for many years.

I can confirm this was Mr Fielders house situated in Kitkatts road at its junction with Long road it was facing the then telephone exchange; now an old people’s home. When I lived further down the road Mr Quenby the chemist occupied the house next door to fielders.

This house was and still is, on corner of convent road /long road as stated by Helen who lived there – not Abbeyfield House on corner of Kitkatts / Long Road which was empty for many years during my childhood before being turned into a residential home later !

We confirm the house was on corner of Long Road and Convent Road with a tennis court at the back. Our family stayed there for a short while with the owners Mr. and Mrs. Bennett, their son Bernard and daughter Edna and dog Panda in round about 1950 when Edna was the carnival queen! A very beautiful home.
