Find your place in history
Are you:
- Curious about the history of your house but don’t have the time or expertise to research it yourself?
- Looking for innovative ways to market your property?
- Moving to a new house or premises and want to learn about its history?
- Looking for an unusual gift to commemorate a special occasion or anniversary?
Journey back in time with your own uniquely researched house history that you can treasure for years to come...
- Discover the answers to those questions you have always wanted to know about your house – how old is it, who used to live here, what sort of people were they, what did they do, what did the house use to be called, how much land did it have, and what went on here? We research original archive documents, books and other material to try to answer these questions.
- Experience the thrill of the chase as we trace your property back through the centuries. We will keep you fully informed of our research progress and let you know of any exciting discoveries.
- Share your house’s history with visitors, family, and friends. You will have all the history of your property in one place – convenient, accessible and full of interesting information. You’ll be able to tell them the stories, answer their questions, and show them copies of old documents about your house.
- Invest in your property by learning about its history. Authentic historical information about your property can be used to support and protect against future developments. You can also use it to market your property if it is a business, and enthuse potential buyers if you decide to move.
- Find your place in history. Every building has its own unique history whether it’s five hundred or fifty years old. And what’s more as owner/occupier of the property you are part of that history. Knowing your own house history will increase your enjoyment and appreciation of living in an old house.
