Apparently the Mitfords were the only people living on the island?

Hi Jackie,

+staff for the house sometimes. The house still stands. It passed from their hands in the 1960s I think. In an odd quirk of history, the communist daughter gave her share to the British Communist Party.

One of those names that I've heard but, on reflection, realise I actually know nothing about. So, very interesting!

I quite often catch sight of the house. You can see it from the shore.

I share the delight in finding driftwood to burn.
