xenia Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 The Wellington was built about 1820 and further up Brightside Lane was the "Blucher" Named after the Prussian general who fought alongside Wellington at Waterloo. The Blucher was demolished about 1960. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
