In reply to Alan Terrill. Thank you Alan. It’s good to see the tradition continued. I will try to visit this summer.

In reply to Patrick. The two owners of Cwm-Weeg near Newtown are currenly building themselves a mausoleum which may be finished later this year.

In reply to Patrick. As long as one has no immediate plans to be a tenant.

It’s a really interesting mix of motifs – I’m going to try and get out there soon to take a look. I’ll get back to you if I come up with anyone specific – possibly a Hull based architect rather than a York chap… maybe.

Great article – and thought provoking on who could be the architect: Its a cracking little neoclassical design.
