William Joseph Dibdin and his wife lived in this house for a couple of years. There is reason to believe that he was there when his son Lionel got married.

A.A.Dibdin. Poultry Breeder was Augustine Aglio who died in 1909 aged 24.

The photos show that the house was a large estate with no buildings around it as there are now.

Augustine's death may have been the reason that the family moved to 31 Idmiston Road
