Information request
Picture postcard sent by Bray to The Owner, Tennyson's Home, Farringford, Freshwater, Isle of Wight on 8th October 1904 asking for information to be supplied.
Farringford is a Grade 1 Listed Building and was the main residence of the Poet Laureate Alfred, Lord Tennyson from 1853 until his death in 1892. It continued in the possession of the Tennyson family until 1945, when it was sold to British Holiday Estates Ltd, who converted the house into a hotel. Farringford remained a hotel until 2010, when work began to restore the building to its original condition as a historic home.
The card was signed by Hallam Tennyson, son of Alfred Tennyson.
