Correction to the article requested - or at least checked out.[edit]

Hi My grandfather used to own Fyling Hall for short while. He purchased it in 1930 (9 months before my mother was born there) and sold again in 1934 when he moved to Grange Over Sands in Lancs. When he sold it in 1934 it was to William and Mabel Bradley. So the dates on the article don't quite add up. Perhaps Mab Bradley started the school in 1923 (as the article says) but not in that building until 1934.

I have a handwritten document of the property transfers of Fyling Hall from 1871 to 1934 (8 owners in all) which a relative researched locally many years ago.

My grandfather, Frank Dickens purchased it from The British and Continental Touring Club who were the previous owners and who purchased it in 1925. Being of independent means he planned to start a pheasant farm. (Not relevant to the article, he was unfortunately not healthy enough having had TB for half of his life and died 3 years after he sold the property at the age of only 36.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trickster8 (talkcontribs) 15:13, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
