"Louie's arrival at Hodder. Two boys smiling wearing short pants standing at either side of an ornamental vase"

    This is Louis and George Meldon (we think). Hodder is an English Boarding School. See here, for further detail:

    Sharon Corbet Scary speedy, Sharon! So, delighted to be arriving at Boarding School?
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Hodder Place info on wikipedia. It was the prep school for Stonyhurst. National Library of Ireland on The Commons That's what I thought - particularly finally joining his older brother.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sharon Corbet So Louie is probably more properly Louis then. And as Hodder Place was near Clitheroe in Lancashire, that makes Louis an honorary Clitheroe Kid.

    Possibly the vase and steps are on the east (shaded) side of the building - Google satellite view - www.google.com.au/maps/place/Hodder+Place,+Knowles+Brow,+... I think the young gentlemen are happy to find a tennis ball in the vase. Finders keepers!

    ?? googlesphere - goo.gl/maps/X1Y1dJTGfZFyvfZ7A I think there were four trees. Trying to work out the shadows from early morning(?) winter photo ...

    oh this one has me .. stumped
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Hmmm - second thoughts - not sure it is that group of trees at Dromoland. This Lawrence view from across the lake shows larger trees in that spot, a jetty, and two boatsheds - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322269
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    beachcomber australia The other option is that it is Roxborough instead of Dromoland as the catalogue title is "Roxborouch/Dromoland 1904. Three large craggy oak trees on riverbank" There's no Streetview but here is the satellite view.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Here's a working link to a different OSI Map Viewer (though you may need to choose the 25" yourself) showing Roxborough House and the lake/river which was larger then.
