Forest Lodge Manor 1898 - 1915 Rebuilt as Dryad Manor 1916 and sold to Care Company 1991 now known as Dryad Spinney.

Forest Lodge Manor was built circa 1898 by a local building company in Hampshire. The Manor which Originally had 4 stories but was damaged in WW1 then meant that the 3rd and 4th floors needed to be removed after a bomb hit directly outside the Manor destroying the ajoining Cemetry as well as 2 maids working on the second floor who were fatally injured when fragments of grave stones came through the windows.

The Maids known locally as Betsy and Fanny were possibly sisters from Kings Ride Farm but this cound not be confirmed as Kings Ride Farm was also destroyd killing all 5 members of the family during the 1915 Fawlwy Blitz.

Not alot is known about the Manor before it was sold To a Care Company in 1991 but there has been a number of suspicious sightings and locally people are wary of the area.
