Eddie Brazil experiment, May 2003

Where was the rectory in relation to the present day site?

I am not a very good line artist, and I know that my approximations are probably a bit out, but someone with a grasp of computer graphics might come up with something "better." I think it would give people who visit the site an idea of the layout of the rectory when viewed with modern day photos of the site.

I have also included another photo to help you get a better idea of where I was standing when I took the first picture, just a few feet inside the gate. I have reckoned that in front of me diagonaly left, behind the bush and small tree would have stood the front door. Straight ahead would have been the sewing room. A little further to my right and going out of shot would have been the kitchen. Possibly where you can see the black object on the grass might be the location of the courtyard. Heres hoping that somone else visualises it better.

All the best,
Eddie Brazil
