Letter from John Somervell,

Broom Close, Kendal, to William

Bryham, esquire, Parkside House,

Kendal

Referring to an 'aged caller' at

Parkside and recalling times past: 'I

remember the old Parkside in the

1860s and calling as a small boy with

my mother on her cousins there. Later

I remember the buillding of the

present house, I think on the same

site, by Robert Crewdson who had

married Rachel Benson, daughter of

Robert. (Rebuilding about 1866).

Through the defalcations of a partner

he (Robert Crewdson) was obliged to

sell the house I think to Mrs Bousfield

and to return to Preston to build up

his business. Later he bought

Wordsworth's Rydal Mount where he

died many years later his wife moving

to Torquay where her nieces lived

with her till her death. His wife was

aunt to your caller, but I'm uncertain

whether the old house was built by

George or Robert, but imagine it was

Robert after his marriage in 1807, but

your deeds may tell you this. The

road was set northward before my

time, so for the sake of the old house.'

family identifying 'aged caller' as

probably Janet Dor
