other part was purchased by the owner of the house on the private road behind thus giving him
access to the right of way alongside FHD.
4. In the original grounds of Froghall was a large lake containing an island. A lawn led down
to the lake from the Hall. When the Charlesworths sold the Hall in April 1971 to Den Hill
Securities Ltd for £16,500 presumably the rest of the land was split off. In May 1972 it was then
sold to Hoti for £49,500 who extended the servants quarters end and subdivided the whole into
twelve lease hold flats.
Stuart Ingwell's Deeds
Stuart Ingwell has provided details of the deeds of his house, which occupies part of a plot (Plot 6),
called in 1964 "Bar-None", being sold at that time to Lt. Col and Mrs C.A.Pank by L. Telling Esq, who
had bought Frog Hall in 1954.
The deeds include a map showing the location of this plot. This map does not show the main drive
populated with houses. However, I have a very similar map, but undated, where the yellow stretch
of the driveway is crossed by the name "Crouch Estate".
Much more recently, house numbers 47 and later 47A were built to occupy the plot shown on the
1964 map.
In with the paperwork are a set of maps, on tracing paper, going back in time - 1955, 1940, 1939
and 1922. They show the location of the plot of Bar-None in relation to the rest of the drive.
