Title
Flodder Hall, Lyth Valley, nr Kendal - RAC1972.022.1
Description
Flodder Hall gets its name from being near to flooding water. This is one of the largest farms in the valley with probably the oldest farm house. An inscription on the porch is still in evidence as follows: –
SI SEPIENS FORE VIS
SEX SERVA QVOE TIBI MANDO
QVID LOQVERIS ET VBI
DE QVO CVI GVOMODO QVANDO
Which translates as: IF YOU WISH TO BE A WISE MAN
OBSERVE THESE SIX THINGS WHICH I COMMAND YOU:
WHAT YOU SAY, AND WHERE, OF WHOM, TO WHOM. HOW AND WHEN
SI SEPIENS FORE VIS

DE QVO CVI GVOMODO QVANDO
Which translates as: IF YOU WISH TO BE A WISE MAN
OBSERVE THESE SIX THINGS WHICH I COMMAND YOU:
