Thanks Garinda and Retlaw for having a look. Much appreciated.
I think you're about right with the dates Garinda - give or take. On the first one the location is really difficult to match, and Union Flags were carried at lots of events, so I knew that was always going to be a bit of a shot in the dark.
I thought the second one might have proved fruitful though. The chimney / mill just behind the houses might have been enough of a landmark for someone to recognise. But again, it's not forced to be local anyway
