The following pages of photos cover the period 1959-63,
and are taken from a collection of items that
were recently contributed by
Chris Cooper.

Chris included pictures of The Priory and Blacklion, as well as obituaries for Sean Hughes MP et al.
He recently moved to a house in Sandhurst, Berkshire and his contact details can now be found
on the 'confidential list'.

(Email me if you don't know about this list)

Can anyone tell us more about this particular event ?

This is a particulary good view of The Priory, isn't it ?

The Priory, showing the Fathers' House.

Yes — but this view includes the car . . .
(Austin A35 or a Humber Snipe belonging to the Bishop, perhaps?)

The quality is poor but it is included because the aspect is special.
