Scargill History

The Holdsworth family site - who owned Scargill before it became a community/conference centre has a page on the house with the original 1957 estate agent's write up:

Ownership of the Estate carries the right to Pew Sittings in the Parish Church of Kettlewell and share in the Lordship.

hmmm!
Another page has a picture of the house in its Holdsworth days - about 3/4s of the way down that page!

And here's a blog link from a current community member - Shan - thanks to Dave Walker for this!
