A Little Taste of Walton History

One of my favourite things about editing Causeway is finding out more about the villages and the surrounding area. I walk past these houses every day with the dogs and so I found their history really interesting. Many thanks to Paul for sending us this postcard and information. VICTORIA This view of School House and Moorside Cottages, School Lane, Walton is from a Rowley postcard sent in 1905. G. Rowley was a local postcard publisher in Bishopthorpe Road, York. The three original Moorside Cottages were at one time owned by the Bramham Park Estate, had their own pig-sties at the back and may once have been thatched. In the mid-1920s another cottage was built onto the west (left-hand) end of the terrace close to School House. PAUL CLEARY
