Mrs Cladd

Anyone remember Mrs Cladd who lived in a converted railway carriage - at least I think thats what it was - just up from Fairfax Hall, opposite the house called Farthings? She was an old lady who grew what we now call cherry tomatoes, but they were a delicious novelty then, and she sold them for a shilling a pound. Am I right in thinking her house was replaced by the working mens club? We left Menston in 1964 to move south to Portsmouth but over the years I have passed through the village many times when in the area on walking holidays.
