Parlington Hall :: Staithe Cottages, Parlington Lane
The pictures here are not from the day out
as I have termed it, but come from the same source and are included to put into context, country living in the inter war years [1919-1939]. Water delivered by a shire horse pulling a tanker with large spoked iron wheels! The recipient of the water is Fred Selby and his wife, who at the time were living in one of the Staithe Cottages on Parlington Lane, the blurred figure behind them may be their daughter?
Carefree Summer Days in the 1920's

The second image which is outside the other staithe Cottage is of two girls enjoying a turn on a home made swing suspended from a bough of the tree adjacent to the cottage.
