Hello
I am vice chairman of Cowes Heritage, a voluntary organisation which
mounts exhibitions in this Isle of Wight town. We have a photograph
showing the garden of a seafront house,with the caption: Lord
Dorchester, 1888. Do you know what connections that particular Lord
Dorchester had with Cowes. As the picture was said to have been taken
on 6th August 1888 I assume he was in the town for Cowes Week, but
possibly the Lord actually owned the house and had not just rented it
for the regatta. Can you shed any light please?
