You can check house prices online, have any in that area changed hands for a disproportionately high price? http://www.nethouseprices.com/ Is the railway line still open to passengers, I can see that the stations have closed, but a ride in a train along there may be of interest. Phil On Tue,

A little mapping conundrum for you folks. This building with the ? in the centre of the map [1] appears to be a house, yet I can't find the access to it. BING Birdseye [2] doesn't appear to clarify matters. Google [3] suggests there might be a red car parked outside which would mean there sho
