Ok, done the sketch, now just have to learn to put it in here.
haven't done that before ;)

You will notice (hopefully) that I have removed people and trees to show the building.  It is most likely out of proportion and perspective but the general idea is there.

I have put in windows where I felt they might be but some of the lower ones could quite easily be doorways.

The porch/portico thingy was a bit hard to guess at, this is what I came up with.

The building in the distance  was put in the too hard basket and I have used a dotted line to show where I thought it might go, note the ? used in that spot.

fingers crossed that I can put the image up, if not 'help' required. Hope I got the size right, it looks too small

From the men's clothing it looks like 1910 - 1915, ladies look a bit earlier date Edwardian style.
Location could be the Peak District or a bit further north.

I think he's covered about 4-5 old threads in the last hour or so - I wish it was 13 years ago - I'd be young  8)
