Home sweet home

My mam and Dad moved into this house which is situated about 8 miles out of Darlington in 1986.
The house was built in 1944 for the purpose of housing the local priest and any travelling bishops who passed through the parish.



In the view of the rear of the house (below) the building to the right was originally an orphanage which was ran by the Catholic church. Since then it has had a number of uses including being used as a refuge during the war and more recentley a nursing home.



I have got just under a week at home now and have made a few plans which should fill up my time. The sun is shining and a big Sunday roast dinner is in the oven, happy days !!
