  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.

  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!
