Maybe I have been looking at the wrong house?

Spring House is/was in the field off Nelson Rd to the left (going towards Nelson) down the track, by the layby, not far past the end of the grave yard. It used to be called Harlesyke Farm and is in Rogers book under that name.
The photo is taken with Nelson Rd beyond the field behind the house as you look at the pic.
Where is what you have been taking pics of David?

Right, we are talking about two different properties. I just looked at the first post and you said your relllies lived there (Spring House) before moving to Blackpool-------crossed wires somewhere.
