Ed,
Well I am glad to see you have put the plan out there.
I have drawn a part copy of the plan in AutoCAD and if the people here would let me at the web site I would put it on the site. I will send it to David over the weekend as a JPG file. (If anyone would like a copy let me know and I can send it direct.)
The house that AR drew is very similar to the plans of Tent Lodge and the painting of that house looking to the fells over Coniston Water. I have evn gone so far as to sketch in the fells behind and compare them to the contours shown on maps of that area. Once you identify a few points it is easy to calibrate the pictures. One of the sketch artists in here explained how to do it.
But AR changed the plan a little from Tent Lodge but left the chimneys as shown on Tent Lodge.
Has anyone been inside Tent Lodge?
I also wonder if the spare room is the spare room becuase that is where the GA slept and it was the main bedroom in the beginning. (A bit like sleeping your parents room. - I id not like that when I had to do it at Christmas when they were away and my daughters stayed.)
Anyway I have to go teach class.
Bye the way how does one get into the Club Hut no one has told me yet even though I got my Mixed Moss last night. At least now I am assured the AR is not under the bed with the Reds (as the Gov used to say to scare everyone in Australia.)
