Just so there is no confusion - Craig Brown would never have met RK, having
been born c. 20 years after the latter's death
This item on Radio 4 was/is an account of young John Scott-Ellis, later 9th
Lord Howard de Walden, meeting with RK at CHirk Castle in 1923 - part of
Craig Brown's new book of chance historical encounters, One on One,
currently being serialised in Radio 4's Book on the Week
[The item mentions Henry Feilden]
Thanks for bringing it to my attention
best
