Nether Green Lodge

Nether Green Lodge

This was built in 1906 in the vernacular style by John Henry Stokes for his own occupation,but as his wife then died, he never took up residence. The ironstone came from the old Post Office on the Green,on the site of the general grocery store, and other stone cottages in the village.It was first occupied by Hugh Owen a jockey and National Hunt rider killed in 1909. There is a memorial window to him in the south aisle of the Church. After World War II the house was used for a time as a nursing home for the elderly.
