Guest Gramps Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 is this Hunfield House its mentioned in this picture as being to the extreme right. I think the buildings in your screen capture are the old outbuildings to Norwood Grange. The Hunfield House mentioned on the Picture Sheffield photo was on the opposite side of Longley lane at the back of the Piper Houses. Do you have any other references to Hunfield House ? That photo is the only mention I've seen of the name. Marked with an arrow on this map... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The close was known as Hunfield - Hun being a personal name. The close ia the site of Piper Houses in 1575 it was sold to Nicholas Slatter and he built a house called Hunfield House on the site built between 1579 and 1604. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
