Only me Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Shirecliffe house was used for many years as a local authority remand home and for boys in care. This was i think until sometime in the 1980s when extensions mostly to the rear were demolished. Does anyone know what its used for these days ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duckweed Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 What was it before it was a remand home? I know there was an older Shirecliffe Hall which was demolished. Is it built on the site? Is it same building as was Parkwood/Shirecleffe College? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lysandernovo Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 It was obviously a large house at some time . I have a dim and distant recollection that it was owned by the Willis family... in the 1920s...but I could be very wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
