Description

Built in 1890, it quickly became a valuable asset to the parish, hosting groups, meetings, and events prior to the construction of the Parish Hall in 1907. In the house there are nine rooms a bathroom, buttery, closets, and a fine large hall. It currently serves as offices for a local accounting firm.

This postcard is used and dated July 24, 1914.
