Rookery House, Hildersham before 1868 (Photo Scott and Wilkinson) (Cambridgeshire Collection)

Rookery House, Hildersham

History of Rookery House

Precise location unknown

Rookery House was pulled down in 1868. The reason was that there had been a big fire that had destroyed the rectory farm buildings, tithe barn and barn belonging to Manor Farm. The owner of Manor farm wanted to rebuild; Rookery House was empty at the time and the Squire was persuaded to demolish the house so that the bricks could be reused. (Vanishing Cambridgeshire p.122)
