Janet as far as I can see you got it right.. You said its now a private house and thats what the article says.. business man bought it for 600k and turned it into a private house..

The AGM is because the trust is still going...and it would seem at least 600k in the kitty

Post Re: Chaigley Manor

with all this money, could the trust not reopen somewere else or would it take more money than the 600k. they must have made a fair amount of interest on the money by now.
