Childhod Memories.

A Memory of Pateley Bridge.

I visited Eagle Hall as a child, my grandfather, Mr GB Edward, and his wife bought the Hall in a fairly run down condition. I have memories of horse riding around the grounds swimming in one of the lakes, and of how derelict much of the house was. Unfortunately my grandfather did not really have the money to undertake the necessary renovations and I think that Eagle Hall was probably in as bad a condition when he died. He is buried in the churchyard in Pateley Bridge.
