| Rev O'Rorke & family. Seated in shade Mrs O'Rorke and her aunt Catherine Marsh (authoress). The lawn was used for annual Church Fete. | Same shot as above but at a later date as the ivy has grown up the sides of the doorway. | A more distant shot showing the croquet lawn set up ready for a game. | Rev & Mrs Henry Thomas O'Rorke 1879-1912 (The Rev. and Mrs O'Roke were the God parents' of my mother Marion Jean Arnold, my mother being the grand daughter of John Lemon Payne and his wife Mary Ann Payne nee Pryer of Elm Tree Farm, Short Beck, Feltwell.

The Rev. O'Rorke and one of his daughters in the pony and Trap used when visiting his flock. His three daughters spent most of their time (and money) visiting the sick. |
Judging by the plant growth this was taken about the same
time as the one above. Rev O'Rorke is standing outside the front
door. Post marked 1913. |
The kitchen and scullery are hidden behind a very overgrown
garden. |
