Acacia Villa, Staple Hill
- Staple Hill
Hi, Acacia Villa, Acacia Rd, Staple Hill was a big old house in it's own grounds with a huge Acacia tree and pond. Originally an old coaching inn. This was demolished in the 1960's and replaced with new houses. Does anybody remember it? Could there be a photo somewhere! Maybe the developers photographed it during planning stages, does anyone know who they were? My Mum, Dorothy Bressington (nee Biggs) has many happy childhood memories of her home - 1930-40's. Her Dad was a piano tuner - Edwin Biggs, does this jog any memories?
