Wow this is an excellent article about interconnections. Is the building still standing? It looks very modernist.

Yep. Still there, still lived it. It’s Grade 1 listed these days.

Thought it might be.

Farley Farm (Lee Miller's home after WW2) is only 10 minutes drive from where I live and is open to the public three or four days a week during the summer: https://www.farleyshouseandgallery.co.uk/

I only discovered this very recently following an article in The Times one Saturday, written by her son, and will be visiting soon!

I’m staying with my friend Susan atm - she says Farley Farm is wonderful.

I loved this untangling of connections. So many people with whom it would have been a treat to have dinner!

Especially if cooked by Philip Harben!

A tour de force, Liz! Such an array of talent and ideals, in such a splendid building. I’d like more of this—like you, I thrive on evidence of connection and co-operation!
