General:
The original box in which the ENG069 negatives were housed had the words "Attractive small place at Grassmere [sic] Miss [Mrs.?] Millers" on its label. This is probably the name of the owner of the site depicted in ENG069001, 002, 003, 004, 005, 008, and 021, which is in Rydal rather than Grasmere. Other images in ENG069 are of locations in Rydal, Grasmere, and other parts of the Lake District.
