We’d love to include your images of Collyweston here, either in a separate Gallery or as a featured picture. Do you have a photo that would look great at the top of the website? Get in touch if you’d like us to add any from your collection.
The website has been contacted about these pictures. Can you help?
“Whilst on holiday recently in Rutland we decided we’d like to visit Collyweston as my wife had holidayed there in the mid-late 50s. Where she stayed, in Hall Yard, we think is now No.5 but was then No. 10. When we got home I googled Collyweston and found you. She has a few photos of the house and area at that time. The people who lived in 10 Hall Yard were Mr & Mrs Roberts, relatives of my wife’s first husbandl”

I believe this is now No 3 Hall Yard. I am currently researching the history of Collyweston Palace and the area in and around Hall Yard. I also grew up in Collyweston and my Aunt lived next door at No 1 Hall Yard. Would love to chat to you. Sandra Johnson
