Cragg Farm
This photo shows Cragg Farm painted white and Sweetbriar Cottage attached. My mother was Margaret Jane Carr and was born and raised at Cragg Farm. She was 16 years old in 1926 when this photo was taken.
She married Roland Calverley at Kettlewell Church in June of 1935 and moved near Bradford. As a family we used to go to Starbotton and visit friends there through the 50's and 60's. I married an American and now live in the States but i still go to Starbotton every time i come back to England. We continue to have friends and family living there. It is a sacred spot to me, timeless, and i hope it will remain so.
My uncle William Carr of Carleton recently made a bench with a plaque in memory of all the school children he knew growing up there. It is placed somewhere up the hillside toward Cam i believe.
