[Retlaw]

Went and had a look again at your property, if you look at the width of the pavement on the Grange Lane side, it should be that width all the way round to Wellington St, the previous owners were ordered by the council to reinstate, the original pavement and to remove that wall. The lamp with the etched glass, is not an original type of street lamp of that era, and is stood in what used to be the pavement, it is an ornamental lamp, probably purchased from a garden center, also the plaque on the wall. There are photographs on this thread showng what it used to be like.
You need to watch out now, you may get lumbered with that pavement problem.
I don't think your husband was the one who let me take photographs in the basement, it was over 30 years ago.

We are trying our best to be sympathetic to the buildings former uses and hope to have some exciting plans for it in the future. We will not be removing any original features. If anyone can help with any further history of the building, as I really do love it, it would be great. NLTG left behind some framed articles and pictures - of which have been posted on here- but it would be nice to hear locals stories. Thanks again for clearing up mistakes. It's a pain to know that we will have to take out the etched glass which states 'The Toll House' in the outside lamp though!!!
