Does anyone know the origin of the name Grange Court Drive? I assume there was a place called Grange Court in the area but I remember my mum telling me,when I was small,that there was a monastary there somewhere. Would this be one and the same?

From the deeds to our bungalow in aforesaid road I believe the name originates from a bungalow or somesuch called "Grange Court" which the map shows was on the south west end of the site. There weren't many other buildings nearby so presumably Larkins purchased the whole site from the owner of Grange Court. Please also remember that Larkins main residence was in Park Lane which is very close-by as the crow flies.
