Wedding of Mary Cane to Albert Howard, 18 November 1922 in front of what is now Barleymans – note the rough cobbled path. Mary’s father (Joseph) and mother (Sarah) are far left and her brother Arthur is back row far right. D: 1920 C: 20th Century...
Arthur & Nora Cane with son John in 1955 outside their home (now Barleymans). Arthur is also on his sister’s wedding photo of 1922 and on photos of Drage & Kent’s steam ploughing engine.
These two photographs were taken in 1959 from Barleymans – (top) looking across to Martenholme Pond and (bottom) looking towards Wire farm (that’s a Premier double decker in the distance!)
The two photos below appear to have been taken around the same time. The b&w one below is taken from a postcard which was posted in 1973. The roof has been re-thatched. The single storey extension did not exist in the early 1960s – see the photo...
