Malcolm and Evelyn Romer's houses

Malcolm and Evelyn lived in some elegant mansions during their married life - I have to say I'm quite envious! Here they are starting with 2 Hans Crescent, London where they moved to after selling The Sycamores in 1915. We're not sure which of these houses were rented and which were bought.

To 1914: Sycamore House, Farnborough Hampshire

This was Evelyn's home until she married in 1914.

1914 - 1916: 2 Hans Crescent, Chelsea

1959 - 1963: Lovel Hill, Windsor Forest

By 1959 they moved south again by buying Lovel Hill in Windsor Forest. The house seems to have passed to their son, Malcolm Nigel Romer upon Evelyn's death in 1963 (Source: British Phone Books, 1880-1984).
