Snippets: Richard Norman Pilling lived at Kiplin Lodge. Howdendyke which his wife Maud had inherited due to fact that her brother George Eric Asquith Anderton IV had been killed in WWI whilst serving with the Lancashire Fusiliers. It would seem that history had a habit of repeating itself within the family – George II died aged just 40 & left the works to his widow Mary to run until their son George III came of age. George III died when his son was just 12 & and the works were left for his widow & cousin Laura (a scion of the Asquith political family) to run. in time Laura remarried to another cousin - Tom Hall. As George IV was killed in WWI his sister Maude inherited the family firm with her husband R. N. Pilling becoming M. D. of the firm. An in-depth book titled “The Annihilation of a place called Howdendyke” by J D Porteous has been published which details the Anderton family & their involvement with the community which proves fascinating. including the fact that in 1889 Maude aged just 3 launched a ketch the “Maude Mary” which was part of her father's fleet.
