vox 2 Posted October 24, 2014 "Basements" Isn't that the posh word vox? I used the term Basement because there appear to be large windows, below what appears to be ground level, which suggests that the rooms are useable for other than storage. Cellars are more commonly associated with an underground room devoid, or almost devoid, of natural light. Originally used for storage only. Difficult to define, but I'll bow to your first hand knowledge of the building and revert to my working class roots. Cellars they are then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am still trying to work out the whereabouts of the FIRST Photograph(s) in this Post. I thought it was Southey/Southey Green Lane at first, but it can't be. Where abouts is it, please?
