And some more comments ... You should be proud of what you have created ... There's lots of history ... We learned so much ... A fabulous example of a community endeavour ... Reminded me of Nanny's house ... Will bring my mother (b. 1929) next time ... I remember some of the items from my childhood ... We enjoyed it as much if not more than the “Big House” ... Long may it continue to be preserved for future generations ... Brought back many memories of my grandparents' cottage ... 9 year old enjoyed and answered all the children's quiz questions ... Loved all the food and the marbles ... Feels like someone still lives here ... The children loved it ...

And so many said .. Thank you
