He and his wife bought Morningthorpe Manor in the 1990s which became home to his vast historical library of over 30000 books and pamphlets. This work regards a proposal for a new porch to St Andrew's Hall Norwich. It is written to the mayor of Norwich Henry Staniforth Patteson by Richard Noverre Bacon an English newspaper editor. Bacon was a noted author on agriculture and was an editor of the Norwich Mercury. Bacon is against the proposal for a new porch and refers to it as 'inconsistent' and that it will 'destroy the design of this fine building'.
