Neville House Oakham High Street Up For Sale



Neville House Oakham High Street

Correction

(Mrs Clifton does not own Neville House. I was given the wrong information.

She happily told me a bit about its history, From the time it was the Ford’s Home.  Rosemary Ford married Mr White and that’s how the family name disappeared from the owners of Fords Department Store. The present owner of the store is Richard White not the town clerk.

The house is currently owned by the Boon family best know for publishing company Mills & Boon.)
 


Neville House Oakham High Street up for Sale. On of the nicest town centre properties.


The choice of estate agent surprises me, I was not aware Spencers Countrywide properties had an exclusive section


I fear this fine home will be snapped up by a developer and converted into flats, it also has a huge garden.
The location is not the best for these modern times, Anti Social behaviour from late night drinkers it high unlikely a family would enjoy the area.

I know Cllr Peter Jones lives in the same area in another fine town house and it drove him to a drunken brawl in the street outside Clay causing Standards for England to investigate.

The Wandering Minstrels


(Patron: Lady Isabella Naylor-Leyland)

A superb light-hearted evening of songs and scenes from the Gilbert and Sullivan comic operas, beautifully sung and delightfully staged. Two hours of Savoy favourites, combining the biting wit of W.S. Gilbert and the enchanting music of Sir Arthur Sullivan.

'The Wandering Minstrels' is an highly accomplished group of six singers and a pianist who specialize in staging songs and scenes from the immortal Gilbert and Sullivan operas. Their concerts of Savoy classics, presented in period costume and performed in traditional style, are events to remember.

The majority of their performances are staged in parish churches, helping to raise much-needed funds for these wonderful buildings. They also perform in theatres and stately homes all around the country and have frequently appeared at the prestigious International Gilbert and Sullivan Festival in Buxton.

Over many years this exceptional company has built up and commanded an enviable reputation as a leading Gilbert and Sullivan concert group, making them very much in demand. In addition, the company has raised hundreds of thousands of pounds for numerous charitable causes since its formation.
