The occupants of CA07, (3.48am) and Jeremy (3.52am) arrived at the scene and parked their vehicles in Pages Lane, in close proximity to what are known, or referred to, as the farm cottages!
When Bews, Myall and Jeremy went on a recce of the farmhouse shortly after arriving at the scene, their route to the farmhouse was as follows:-
They turned right off Pages Lane, and followed the farm track around to the court yard side of the premises (lets call it the red brick part of the house) with the bathroom with its red curtains, and the twins bedroom with the green curtains situated on the first floor..
Then, after this they went to the right of the farmhouse (initially) and stood in a field facing towards the front of the farmhouse, but Jeremy told me that at one stage because PC Myall thought he had seen someone at his parents bedroom window (top left), they went into the grounds of the farmhouse and took temporary cover behind some raised flower beds in the front garden! Now I have had many a dispute with members of this forum and elsewhere, where they say there was no such raised flower beds at all in the front garden of the farmhouse at that time! All I can say, is that Jeremy was very specific when he spoke to me about what happened and where some of the observations of the figure at his parents bedroom window had been made from!
Jeremy has always maintained to me that himself and the two police officers were crouching down behind these small walled flower beds when they observed the person at the parents bedroom window!
Some people say that there were no bricked flower beds at all in the front garden of the farmhouse, and that it was a hedge which separated the front garden from the field in front of it! All I can say, is that Jeremy conveyed to me the two separate vantage points of the front part of the farmhouse, as seen by himself and the two police officers that morning, initially they were stood in a field at the front of the farmhouse behind a hedge, and latterly they had made their way into the front garden and took refuge behind these raised flower beds, he told me these raised flower beds were built out of brick!
It was whilst they were all taking cover behind these raised flower beds that Jeremy saw the person, who he described to me as being a silhouetted figure who was standing to the right hand side of his parents bedroom window! I asked him on several occasions if he could say with any degree of certainty whether the person they all saw was male or female, in particular was it any member of his family, or not?
He responded by saying that it was not possible from his vantage paint to say who that person was...
Now, his response was an extraordinary one, since it would have been the easiest thing in the world for him to say that he saw Sheila at his parents bedroom window, on that / this occasion, but instead he gave me what I believe was an honest explanation, he said he 'couldn't tell'...
