... just look at the number of times the topic has been read, and I for one looked at their website while I caught up with progress ... publicity for them  around the world.

Best intentions indeed Lynne
Sorry you copped it ...

In their historical history pack from the late 1960's early 1970's, there are nothing like those drawings included.  nor have I ever seen any on any of our visits.

the only drawing regarding the gardens is the one with the crescent shape on it  which most certainly was not on graph paper, nor has the use of  coloured inks.   

I am wondering now whether they will object to my scanning the document.   the only other option is to try and draw it  and use it that way.

People are starting to clamp down on the use of copyright items
so that maybe what National Trust simply doing.

I have looked through all the folder and nowhere does it state any documents are copyrighted.  It was produced by The Liverpool Teachers Archive Group and was designed to be used by children aged 9-13 years.   This was bought for my elder son.

Perhaps a moderator might advise on it.

That's a good question, Lydart.

Maybe they'll trust those members and hope that they'll delete the saved pictures. Do you suppose that they'd obtain our e-mail addresses and send the copywrite people to our doors? That happened to a journalist who contributes articles to one of the Belfast papers. His children downloaded music. Action was taken against him from America and he ended up having to pay £2,500. If the children had spoken to their Dad prior to downloading they could have been registered on the site for £30 and downloaded to their hearts' content. 

The Liverpool Teachers Archive Group don't have a website :(

These packs were made and distributed over 45 years ago.  We bought several of them to begin teaching our son about history in the places we took him to visit.  We also bought one about the Falls of Abraham - General Wolfe in Quebec (which we didn't visit) but was filled with wonderful copy documents etc.,  as well.

Don't know if these packs are still made though.
