Three sketches of Beckett House and gardens.
A rather pleasant sketch of the front part of Beckett House by BA Blackwell in 1983
Another sketch of the formal frontage of the house but seen through the trunks of two elderly trees, sadly no longer there. This drawing by Valerie McDowell in 1986.
Another sketch showing the Fishing Lodge (China House) Cradle Bridge and Beckett House in the background. It bears the initials WPM 1970 who we assume was the artist. This was kindly donated to us by Mrs Jenny Ash of Sandhill, Shrivenham.
