How to upload your images

Pictures should be in JPEG format. They should have a width of 1024 pixels or less (see below). Rename each image as follows:

example: 1947BalcombeHaywards Heath1.jpg, 1947BalcombeHaywards Heath2.jpg

Click on Upload File in the gallery menu and follow the instructions.

Add a description of the house, which could include some or all of the following:

evidence of date, wall construction, other important features, extensions and date, problems solved, points of interest, lessons learned, removing recommendations, etc.
example:
Title register shows transfer to council in 1947; enquiries of neighbours
Cavity walls (stretcher bond, wall thinckness)
Single storey flat-roof extension added 1998 (as built cavity)
South West facing walls sheltered, so no need to remove recommendation for cavity wall insulation
