Well, Tars are human and it's a nice, believable story.

Well, Dick Kelsall (son of Col. Kelsall) is a human being and he recalls at the age of 7 being shown in Borrans Park a curious little wooden building with a sort of bay window and a flagpole projecting from its roof. Dick led the 1993 expedition and while one might have doubts about 'dowsing' they also found post-holes. Also on that expedition was Jim Andrews, who knows every inch of the South Lakes, and is a Ransome scholar. I am not saying that they have to be right, but their researches are persuasive, and do not deserve to be patronisingly dismissed on Tarboard.
