phil bolger Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Does anyone know the history of "The Towers" residence that occupies Brincliffe crescent? I know that it has been used as a boarding school at one time but I would like to know who had it originally built and when? Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rory3255 Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Thanks for the info. Glad I asked. We walked the dog and chased him through some bushes and ended up at the back, but I won't do that walk again, not on to end up in someone's back 'yard' is it! House looks lovely though.
