  • Everything fits for St. John's House, Ryde. The building is now occupied by the Oakfield CE Aided Primary School and they have an excellent website which gives a very full history of the houses and includes a photograph of the north front which is the same as in our unlocated photo. The website is www.oakfieldcepri.iow.sch.uk
    The photo was taken looking south.
    Well done John Brownscombe for getting this one.

  • Almost certain this is Nettlestone Manor between Seaview and Nettlestone on the Isle of Wight.
