With my last few posts being a bit designy, I thought I better get back to some drawing. This is the copse on the outcrop, scene of the attempted suicide of Lt Col W.J. Snodgrass in 1876 upon the discovery of the infidelities of a lover. The bid was thwarted by the foul, stagnant pool at the base of the outcrop which Snodgrass could not bring himself to pass. Leaving his rope, he went home for supper and lived to the ripe old age of 94.
