Foggydew's Fotothing

Thank you for the story/history of this lovely old home. What a shame about the type being lost. In our family (thankfully not me) an elderly aunt of my moms had General James Wolfe's truck and uniforms etc. in her attic. We told mom to go and get them out when she passed away and to give them to one of the large museum's ...."oh no I can't do that" says mom. As a result some distant relation or the people that bought the house (memory isn't serving at the minute) tossed the works into the dump never to be seen again. General Wolfe died in the arms of my gr. gr ??? grandfather one Henry Brown (we have documentation to prove that bit) and that is how we came to have the trunk in the family. I shudder even thinking about it.

the interesting views of a city are not always the one's visited.
only wandering on foot will you find these unless you do your homework first.
antique shops make a good living on what people discard in
either fury or necessity

a view I remember is John Keat's house near Hampstead Heath

yours is a very interesting story - we have to be so careful of old things for they can quickly go and then we lose so much of our heritage!
