The Pepperpot

Today I started clearing the lounge. I can’t find my MP3 player so can’t listen to my audio books. I presumed this was the most likely place to find it. I was wrong. I did find some items belonging to the previous owner and he got someone to come round and collected them. Then we went to get fish and chips for supper. Before our visit, we we had been for a short walk down the Dales Way, and this is where we found the Pepperpot. It was built to allow the daughter of a previous owner to live in seclusion when she contracted TB. She died 3 years later aged 21 so not a very successful ‘cure’.
