Cumbria memories
Romantic Stroll With DD
Ahh, I rememeber it well, strolling down past the church towards home with DD, you see my wife was away and I couldn't help myself. 36 years of wedded bliss up in smoke. Little walks by the canal and kissing on the beach at Hest Bank. She was worth waiting for. The torment of the x ray department was too much. Now I know I am going to suffer (badly). You see messing with another man's wife is a very dangerous game especially when you have told him that you're innocent.
Oxenholme Inn
My great-grandfather Tommy (Thomas Kendal) Cross owned the Oxenholme Inn in the late 1800s. He apparently lost it in a card game and eventually emigrated to the United States with his wife and several children. I'd love to see a picture of the inn from back then or hear any stories or recollections.
Dr Manning's Yard.
My grandma used to live in the Cottage above the head of the Boy leaning on the wall. We use to love visiting and playing in the Yard. Great memories.
New Shambles - Michael Goodwin''s Shop
The boy in the hat is my grandfather, and the girl is his sister. The shop that they are standing outside belonged to their grandfather, a well travelled gentleman born in 1832. The view is remarkably unchanged in 2008!
Kerr Bookshop
Ewen Kerr opened a secondhand bookshop in New Sambles, sometime during the early years of World War II. I remember selling him some of my children's books (I now much regret that I did not keep them; I was only 17 at the time) and buying a splendidly, decoratively bound copy of Agness Zimmermann's edition of Beethoven's Piano Sonatas. It cost, I think, 2s.6d. (c.12.5 p.) and I still have it. Later Ewen's son took the business over & moved to another Kendal location, then to Cartmel.
John Tarver 1850-1932 Grayrigg - Father Samuel
My Gt Grandfather above was born in Grayrigg and worked for LNWR. He wrote pieces for The Westmorland Gazette on a variety of subjects.
I have found one of his pieces, in his papers and he writes - His station was on the side of a gyll which sloped sharply to where the brook at the bottom.....................along the stony, zig zag channels connecting its rocky basins and on to where it falls over a crag into the wood - till it comes to the cottages known of old as 'Lambrigg Fell Gate' once happy home of my forebears and of my childhood - now alas a cureless ruin.
This weekend I hope to try to find these cottage ruins.
The Old Workhouse
I lived very happily in the centre portion of the old workhouse,but unfortunately my cat was killed by a neighbouring greyhound. So, I have happy and sad memories of Ackenthwaite
