Ancestors

For several generations the Pennock family lived at Limber Hill, between Glaisdale and Egton, North Riding of Yorkshire. These derelict building may date to the 1600's.

Where do the weeks go? Holidays soon - and then more time . . . The pic is from a recent trip to Iona, Scotland, looking out towards the Isle of Mull.
