RE: RE: Cove Cottage
I remember going to Cove Cottages as a child. My grandfather Richard Mason worked for the Brights family as a groom, he then went on to work at Bank House Farm, locally known as Mason's Farm. I have very little memory or information about him, and I am trying to trace my family tree. I can remember living at Bank House Farm as a child. Grandad Mason passed away when I was about 5 years old, 1965-66? I recently found an old picture of Grandad Mason with Mr H Bright's "Silverdale Loyalty" first prize polo 2 year old polo pony, which won first prize at Chesire Royal in 1925, but so far I have been unable to find out any more info regarding him.

That looks like the cottage the Willan family lived in - what happened to Raymond and Roland Willan??
