Desperately seeking Samuel Dobson born about 1807 in North Yorkshire

If you have Dobson connections please click on the photo to link you to the St Hilda, Ellerburn website where some of the 'Dobsons' have posted photos.

You will see that the memorial was recently cleaned up by some of the 'Dobson clan'.

Do check out my other blog about my ancestors if you are researching the Dobson, Crooks, Allsop(p), Richmond families.

Monday 22 August – Wallington Hall

Like Cragside and Seaton Delaval hall it is many many years since I visited and as we bought National Trust Membership for our Cornwall holiday it was a good idea to make the effort to visit again.

 

Here’s a view of the front of the house and also the Clock Tower.

Here’s the back of the house.  I bet you are wondering why there is a bed floating on water!!!!!  After we’d had a tour of the house which includes a room full of lovely doll’s houses – and also an art exhibition with the title ‘Unfinished Business’,  we crossed the main road and had a walk down to the Walled Garden.

This bed was on the lake on the way to the Walled Garden which mystified us at first but then when we got nearer we found a notice telling us it was part of the Unfinished Business art exhibition!
