    While visiting with cousin Rita McIvor last year, she was able to identify the house in this picture and we were invited to look around the exterior. More pics to be added soon. Chris Branch.

    I've chosen this as the best of three versions of this photo. This one was loaned by Peter Steward, who supplied the identification. Roland Axman and Doreen Cox lent the two other versions, which have now been deleted.

    Thanks also to other people who commented:

  • The Hall and the Lodge in Docking Rd from the church tower 1982

    Yes this is definitely The Lodge, with Stanhoe Hall behind it. The Lodge is still lived in but no longer belongs to The Hall.

    One of the owners of The Hall after Mr Sanderson moved the drive to the far left of the front garden and built a 6ft brick wall in front of The Hall, on the roadside, to give them more privacy. It is currently being clothed in a trained shrub to soften the effect.

    The walled garden that you remember is now separated from The Hall and belongs to the Stable Block which is now converted into a spacious dwelling.

    There are not so many trees in the grounds now as in this photo.

    Stanhoe is still a very nice place to live , but no longer a community with an agricultural base as it was in your day.
    Whereas in your day The Hall was the home of the farmer who worked the land that belonged to it, it is now a private house with no farm attached.



    Mr Beales the policeman was around for a long time as he spent his retirement years in Docking, and graduated from a bicycle to a little 3 wheeler car.
  • The Green under heavy snow, ? 1985

    These are the Snows I recall from 1952 to 1956. That is how I discoved Stanhoe. We were snowbound on the way to Hunstanton and woud have froze to death had we not found Stanhoe. I love Stanhoe and it's people until this day! The Sandersons made us welcome and gave us warmth and dug our burried car from underneath the snow and got us headed back toward Sculthorpe the next morning. May the Serenity of Stanhoe always remain. You folks have a wonderful place to live. We later rented what was called"The Lodge" in 1952 from Mr. Sanderson.

    It has been so many years since living at "The Lodge" I don't know if this is the correct place. Mr Sanderson was the Hall's owner and rented My Wife, Jean and I the Lodge. We were so poor we could not afford a Camera or, beleve me, I would have Photographed Beautiful Stanhoe's every foot.

    Our first Son, William Elliott Hodge, was born in the Lodge. Back then, directly behind the Lodge was a Maze and the Drive entrance was to the left of the lodge (facing from the road ) and then a quick right off the Sanderson's driveway into The Lodge's parking spot.
    Could someone varify if this is the same Hall and Lodge the Sanderson's Owned? And I would love getting Photo's and/or information of Stanhoe during 1953-1956

    P.C.Beale is the only other person I can recall. Like he, I was a Police Officer until my retirement in 1994. He would stop by and have a tea with us in times of our traveling on Bycycle. I would bike when possible to Sculthorpe.
    Thank you for any consideration
