The former must have been the main residence of Miss Mason, in Orange Grove, while the latter must have been a "stock house" on her vast property. Early maps of the island show several buildings belonging to "Mason" (presumably Miss Mason's father). The Stock House must have been situated just opposite Longwood, on the other side of the ravine which is the "Valley of Nymph". This way, the religious soldiers in there (Wood and others) would be able to perform their duty of surveillance in this outlook post.albertukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09315263416829539138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576793257211626923.post-16075586394474658652009-12-08T19:00:30.731+00:002009-12-08T19:00:30.731+00:00Very small footnote on history this one!Very small footnote on history this one!John Tyrrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14840928923304125310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576793257211626923.post-52229109951267102082009-12-08T14:35:23.289+00:002009-12-08T14:35:23.289+00:00Interesting post, never heard of the fellow.
