Keith... I would not mind if you shared the new info on this site, as opposed to me doing it. You've invested your time here, I'd prefer that you post it however you wish. I'll email it to you as soon as I can.

Keith,

Latest update, snowed in with artic blast of air. It seems some force in the universe is wanting to hold this up. Not actually, but seems that way lately. Just look at the weather here in the NE part of the U.S., it's  crazy cold and piles of drifted snow.

Scout Hall does still exist,just about. it is part of Shibden Hall Estate in Halifax.It does exist and there is an attempt to refurbish it by the owners. I believe there were 3 farmhouses on the estate.

I, also, am very interested to see any info about Scout Hall - in part because it is mentioned in the Coley Registers and in part because I seem to have ancestors from the area.
Just wanted to post to ensure I get notification about any info on this place

Undertaker,

I think there was a link to some photos earlier on this thread, it might have been via Malcolm Bull's Caderdale Companion.

Is it findable using "GoogleEarth"? I've managed to chase up a lot of family houses and areas through that, to give me a pretty good idea of what they're like.
