Soubriquet, blogger and occasional commenter here, sent me this photo along with a little historical background. I love it!
I saw this and thought you might like to see your distant property. I used to walk along Nag's Lane with my grandfather, it goes fromVictoria Street to Horsefair, where the horse-sales used to be...
Now Horsefair is a shopping mall. The building dates from about 1750, might be a bit earlier. It was, I think, related to the coaching inn, not far away, at the end of Victoria street. All along this side were stables, a blacksmith, and accommodation for the coach-crews and grooms.
