Seven photos of the interior of the cottage in Burchett Lane once owned by Dick Thompson before his renovating it. The cottage was previously the headquarters of the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, more commonly known as the Jehovah's Witnesses who sold it to Mr. Thompson in 1972. Mr. Thompson appears in two of the photos. Also included is a diagramatic plan of the cottage showing where the photos were taken.

Dick Thompson was a photographer and the donor of these photos, however as he is in two of the photos he may not be the photographer of all or any of this collection.
