He was appointed to the position of land agent by Frank Tiarks after the Great War. Horace had been gassed during the war and was recommended to find a job where he would be in the open air as much as possible. He met Gladys Ladd, who was working at Foxbury as a maid, and married her in 1921. He was an important member of the Foxbury staff, and respected and liked by the Tiarks family. Agnes Tiarks describes the wedding day on July 30 1921: \u2018Wedding of Gladys Ladd and Horace Goemans at 12. A very nice quiet service \u2013 plenty of nice relations on each side \u2013 no chattering and no music. The Rector read it all so softly. Emmy and Frank, Edward and Mark, Aggie and I. Frank went to the breakfast \u2013 and then came here\u2019. The marriage had been announced in April, and Agnes noted that they each received \u00a35 as a wedding present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"637\" src=\"https:\/\/kemnal-road.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Goemans-Wedding.jpg\" alt=\"Goemans wedding party\" class=\"wp-image-766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kemnal-road.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Goemans-Wedding.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/kemnal-road.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Goemans-Wedding-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kemnal-road.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Goemans-Wedding-768x489.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Goemans&#8217; wedding party<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They started their married life at Homewood Lodge, now the West Lodge on Old Perry Street, moving later to South Lodge on Kemnal Road. Horace remained at Foxbury after Frank sold the estate, and was involved in plans to develop housing on the Homewood Estate. Foxbury Avenue was created and sewers and other mains were laid, but it was aborted at the last minute when the whole area was designated as Green Belt land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Horace and Gladys Goemans Horace Goemans was the land agent at Foxbury.
