(Confusion) you know it’s driving me wild
No, not the usual.
Question here for my random occasional visitors. What’s going on at Sutton Scarsdale Hall that has meant my site and my Flickr pictures of the hall have had lots of vistors lately?
I’ve googled (and even yahoooooood) and I can’t find anything that suggests something exciting is going on, so can someone enlighten me? I’ve had visitors from Nottingham, Derbyshire, Manchester, University of Huddersfield, University of Leeds, random Virgin customers that all come up in Southampton (but I think that’s just because of the weird way Virgin set up IP addresses, either that or most of Southampton and Portsmouth visit me every week anyway) and more. All looking for Sutton Scarsdale Hall. So, er, why?

Like old bags of salad and Friends Reunited, I find visitor logs are best left well alone.
It’s not causing me concern though, just bemusement! It’s like owning a book for ages and then all of a sudden several different people start asking to borrow it, you’d be curious as to why surely?
And they may not be perfect but I’d rather have the info in my logs. Especially given my recent visitor (who still hasn’t outed themselves) who searched for JNBT by his real full name, and me and B similarly (and ended up on B’s site). Thus either knows me personally, or knows of me. I’d rather know that someone is skulking around looking for information on me et al, even if I don’t know who they are.
There was an architecture competition, promoted by the Centre of Attention, to reenvisage the Sutton Scarsdale Hall – you can have a look at our proposal on the kwy site.
I believe they will post some of the entries on their website sometime this month – and you may find some of your pictures made their way into the proposals…
Ah thank you! That explains it.
My own interest in this matter was piqued by a mention of Scarsdale Hall in Philip Zeigler’s biography of one of England’s grandest eccentrics, namely Sir Osbert Sitwell. How sad that Scarsdale hall was destroyed by a group of vandalistic BUSINESSMEN. At least Reinshaw and Montegufoni, the two other Sitwell citadels, are still intact and inhabited.
