Specialists in House History Research in Bedfordshire

  

No two buildings are the same - they are as individual as you and I - and often have fascinating stories to tell.


Researching the history of your house can reveal your building’s unique past, including information on when it was built, by whom, and who owned the land beforehand.  In many instances research will uncover the original architectural drawings, together with a number of old pictures or illustrations throughout the years.

Houses do not just have an architectural history. They also have a social history, and research can reveal who lived in your property and when, what they did for a living, and can sometimes reveal very personal stories about the occupants and how they lived their lives.


Carrying out a full house history extends beyond what is available freely on-line, and requires an expert with local knowledge, specialist research skills in the area, and access to appropriate documentation.  That's where I can help.  When researching the history of your house in Bedfordshire, I can help you find:
 

  • Information on when your house/building was built, and who owned the land previously.
  • Copies of historic maps or estate plans detailing the surrounding area before your house was first built.
  • Original and subsequent architectural drawings of the property, if available.
  • A  full social history of the occupants.
  • Copies of historic photographs and postcards, if available. 

Or if you prefer, I can research just one particular area.  Any research undertaken is tailored to meet your specific needs and budget.   


Once the research is finished, it can be published into a bound volume.

"I can't believe how much information you were able to find about my house.  I'm delighted, and I love the way you have bound all the information into a book for me"
