To everyone who has shown an interest in my post I would like to say a huge thankyou. Just goes to show what a great site this is.
Now getting back to Richard Harland. I laughed and cried when I read the post from Angelfish. I laughed because I have a full worldwide subscription to Find My Past and for years I never solved this mystery of where he could have been buried despite searching this site for any clues. Perhaps I placed too much emphasis on the surname Harland.
I have now viewed the original entry and I can see how FindMyPast have misspelled the surname. I have his death certificate and it notes his death was Pepper Field House Croft, so when I saw Dalton which I believe is a mile south of Croft I was surprised.
I cried because I have been searching for this information for many years without success and now I am retired I never thought I would solve this puzzle even though I am also a member of Ancestry worldwide and a host of other fh sites. Cannot thank you enough.

Just as an after thought, there's a farm shop at Pepperfield farm, Dalton on Tees, there could be a connection with  Pepper Field House.

Actually Pepperfield Farm and Pepper Field House Dalton I would say are the same building. Cannot find any photographs of the actual farmhouse as yet only the letting buildings on the land.

Thanks very much. I did find a photograph of the main farmhouse building which I have saved from the farm website. The house itself dates from around 1800.
Your interest in my post was very much appreciated.
Andrew.
