Have you ever wondered how old your house is and who may have lived there in the past but do not have the time or expertise to find out more? A house history makes an unusual gift that will be treasured for years. It can also serve as an aid to selling your house when the time comes. I work with Benchmark House Histories, a company based in Tring, Hertfordshire which specialises in researching and writing the history of a property and presenting the resulting material in an individually designed, hardback book - or as a large framed print.
