Charley Churchyard (1841-1929), youngest child of Thomas Churchyard, made rather hard sketches and paintings, competent but without the feeling of his sisters nor his father. He worked often just to sell for pocket money: to buy a bottle or tobacco. He took particular delight in sketching outside the Seckford Library when his sisters lived there, knowing how much it would annoy them. This picture would have been done from just this position.
