Exterior of Yorkshire sliding sash window.
Interior of sliding sash window with unusual lugs.
Excellent day today recording a cottage in East Ayton - more complicated than it appears from outside. Hope the drawings will resolve some of the puzzles! Rather strangely, the Yorkshire sliding sash windows had 'lugs' like a vertical sliding sash, but why?

Out at the #bluebells nearby for sunset - another benefit of WFH and late sunsets, can pop out after work!

I can't believe I never noticed Scutchamer Knob before - maybe before volunteers did such a great job in clearing it out? I put this right this week. Loved the seat made from a couple of pallets giving fabulous views across the North Wessex Downs National Landscape. @theridgewaynt.bsky.social
