Hi there

I was wondering if you could help. I am restoring and researching a dolls house, built around 1859.

Its called Goose Green House and was a copy of a large house that stood in or near Goose Green.

Can you advise me where I might find further information about this house.

Regards

Trevor

Try getting in touch with John at Chener Books


There were a string of large houses along what is now the south side of Goose Green, so it could have been one of these.


The last one (when I lived there) was subdivided in to flats and operating as a local taxi firm at the eastern corner of Oakhurst Grove and East Dulwich Road. Almost the entire east side of Oakhuest Grove is built in what was originally its back garden.


However, I don't know the dates it was built, or even if it or the taxi firm are still there now.


I've attached a kmz file for a Google Earth placement if that helps?

    • Hi SpringTime, I completely understand the concern for protecting birds, but using bells on cats is a bit more complicated. While they may reduce hunting success, they're not always effective & can cause stress for some cats, who are highly sensitive to sound. A better solution is to ensure cats are kept indoors during peak bird activity & providing plenty of enrichment at home to satisfy their hunting instincts. There's a terrible misconception that cats do not require as much mental & physical enrichment as dogs do. But they do, if not more so.
    • But we can train them to kill the foreign invaders, green sqwaky things, and the rats with feathers 
    • Hi Nigello, Many spayed/neutered & microchipped cats actually don't wear collars, as they often go missing & can pose risks.  Microchipping is far more reliable for reuniting lost cats with their guardians. Some of our clients even keep sacks of collars on standby because their cats frequently return without them - a comical but telling example of how impractical collars can be. A major contributor to unspayed/unneutered cats & kittens is purchasing from breeders, where these measures are often overlooked. Adopting from shelters, on the other hand, ensures all precautionary steps - like spaying/neutering, microchipping, as well as vaccinations - are already in place.
    • Hi message me if you have any bits whatever they may be thanks
