Wood Hall

A well known character and staunch Conservative lady Mrs Esther Blumer lived here from around 1912 to 1972.
The hall was demolished in the early 1970s as the building was deemed to be unsafe.

My great aunt lived in Woodhall for many years from about 1920 until about 1960, and was friendly with Mrs Blumer. I have a photo of myself as a six year old with my dad , my great aunt and Mrs Blumer during a holiday and a visit to Semer Water in 1953. If you are interested, drop me an email, and I will send the photo and some more details, Thanks, David
