The house across the road, Acomb, York
The house directly across the road from ours, drawn from just inside my gateway. We looked at this house when searching for a house in York in 1992. Both houses were on the market at the time, and we became friends with owners of this house, Led and Mary Howard. Excellent neighbours who were always happy to help, with loans of tools, ladders and advice. Les passed away a couple of years ago. Mary moved back to Somerset, to be closer to her family in February 2018. The house is the same design as ours but has been altered in different ways. There is an extension along the side and the kitchen has been extended into the former wash house and wc. Drawn over about 90 minutes with a Staedtler Pigment Liner 0.1 pen in an A4 cartridge paper sketchbook.
