Can we get pictures of the beckfoot from various angles,
Of course, John, your trusty research assistant is here with the goods.
Note that this is Lanehead, not "Pull Wood House". Note particularly this picture showing the East elevation of the house. There is a newer extension running East-West which is conspicuous by the lighter tiles on the roof. Now in your minds eye remove the extension. What have you got? A building with the North end set back to the West.
What is a consistent feature of all of AR's drawings of Beckfoot? A house with a setback to the right!
Note: none of my posts about Lanehead are intended in any way to detract from Iain's considerable achievement in discovering the links between the Crossleys and the Blacketts.
