More about this scene
This cottage was well over three hundred years old when the Frith cameraman took this picture. Kelly's Directory for 1906 lists a South Downs Cottage, which at the time was the residence of a Mr Frederick Bernard Yahr. At this time residences along South Down Road had names, not numbers; Samuel George Isherwood was living at Villaverde; Alfred Talbolton, JP at Athelney; Mrs Speigelburg at The Coppice; and John B Laycock at Rylstone.
