Now got the keys to Park Road and had a chance to have a really good nose around. Some original features but no hidden treasure as yet. Let’s check the bedrooms.
Interesting little mantle pieces? I wonder? Friends were with us at the time, and Mrs R dared me to prise off one of the covers beneath the mantles. One crowbar, 17 stones of operator and ten minutes later and wow, definitely hidden treasures in all three bedrooms.
Some cleaning and blacking are needed, but these little gems deserve to be on show.
