My sister was telling me since the heatwave they can see an outline of a previous building, which used to stand on their property well before their time.

It'd be nice if the formal garden at Gawthorpe Hall could be recreated. Shame it was ever destroyed.

it's odd that there is no record of when it happened. I don know the building or its history.

Probably got rid of because it was too labour-intensive.

Surely that just means cost too much. If the people who owned it supported the house couldn't afford the labour, then they couldn't afford the labour.

I would have thought it was much more likely to be due to war time labour shortages.

I thought the same thing, and I don't think it would be crazy expensive either. It's just a dead space as it is.

The one near Newgrange is astonishing.

Maybe, since they done't know when who knows. Even then the not reestablishing it is surely a cost decision?

It seems it was the war the did it. It was covered up in 1946.
