Deliberately falsify what, the name of one man on one picture, and two deliberate mistakes in a file I gave to someone who I thought I could trust.
What are you riding this hobby horse for any way

As it happens, I have to do some research at the moment on the Coppice because it's the 100th anniversary this year of the handing over from the Peel family. I will go to the library and I will try to find out as much as possible - but I'm not an expert so if the information that I find out is then put onto display boards and it turns out to be wrong then we'll all know why it's wrong won't we?

The Coppice & Moleside is mentioned in the Coucher Book of Kirkstall Abbey, the first document is dated Circa 1150, with others dated to 1322. There's an old plan of the Peel estates somewhere in the library, dated circa 1800.


Because experts don't want to help the rest of us find out the truth. So when the display boards are put up, please feel free to mock and call me an idiot for believing information that has been put together by experts.
Barnyard Confetti, you don't make sense, If what you call experts did'nt want you to know, they would'nt have bothered to write it in the first place.
