Need Photo of Kirkbarrow Lane in Kendal
« on: Friday 21 May 10 23:06 BST (UK) »
I would like to have a photo taken of three white houses located  at the bend of Kirkbarrow Lane.  My ancestor, Robert Heap (1806-1872), built them in 1861. He was a joiner. It appears the houses still exist. I recently received his architectural drawings from the Kendal archive. In 1861 the properties were facing Vicars Field and surrounded by Achorite Fields, and Brock Beck. behind the houses Robert had other cottages and a workshop, but it is hard to locate them on a current map.You can see the tops of the houses at Google's Maps 360 viewhttp://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Kirkbarrow+LAne,+KEndal&sll=54.321565,-2.745184&sspn=0.010162,0.021222&gl=us&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Kirkbarrow+Ln,+Kendal,+Cumbria+LA9+5DF,+United+Kingdom&layer=c&cbll=54.321362,-2.746991&panoid=kE5JRKBMkLNhwcoxQiBUng&cbp=12,341.36,,2,1.45&ll=54.322099,-2.747317&spn=0.002528,0.005305&z=18
