Thorney Hall was demolished c 1964. It was a seven-bay brick block of two-and-a-half storeys with segment-headed windows and pedimented doorcase on the front. On the side four Venentian windows, and at the back sashes with rusticated voussoirs, a Venetian window over the door, and a round window in the central pediment. (1)

Thorney Hall stood near the church of St. Helen. There had been a house on the same site since c.1480. … rebuilt c.1750 … further additions and alterations were made to the house c.1912. During WW1 the house appears to have been used as a hospital … August 1963 … put the house on the market. A local newspaper described it at that time as 'crumbling to the ground'. The house was demolished soon afterwards and a new house built on the site. (3)
