I wonder if this chap painted any other pictures or is known in any way locally as an artist. Really want to know if he is a member of the family - there certainly was a Duckworth but not a T Duckworth.

Would love to know more. Sue

Picture to follow I hope!

Heres a photograph of Brocklehurst Cottage.
History of Accrington names it as Brock Hole Hurst.
Meaning the Badger Hole in the Wood.
