No sorry Norman it isn't Harrogate but I can see why you thought that.

No sorry not Buxton.
A clue, it was built in 1823 and we saw it in a town on the way to North Norfolk.

Well done. Correct. It is now a private house.

A suspected arson attack destroyed the Museum on 1st December 2009.  Since then the owner has fought to reopen the museum and an interesting discourse is available at the above web site. ZXZ

                 Is it in one of the miners cottages that were dismantled in Tan-y-Grisiau and rebuilt in the Slate Museum in Llanberis? There are four of them, all furnished in different eras and that would be the last one representing the 60's.

Gwynant is spot on with everything.  &well& 

 It was the cottage I liked least as I can remember all those things in the 60's

The others were furnished in different decades and I much preferred them

            Where in the North Wales area would you find this footpath, river and bridge?
