| Rose Cottages have a date on their wall (the white stone just below the eaves in the centre of each pair of cottages) that says WW1902. The WW is William Westbrook. Rock Cottage - on the extreme right of the picture has a similar stone with 1907 on it. Therefore the picture must have been taken after 1907 and before Varney moved from Alton in about 1911. These cottages replaced older buildings on the same site. |
