If you can work out the address, you could try and track down the ER.

The local library may know where they are held.

Kirkby-in-Ashfield Library
Ashfield Precinct
Kirkby-in-Ashfield
Nottinghamshire
NG17 7BQ

Take a tour on Googlemaps if it helps with the address - assuming the cottage still exists.

Although it doesn't really matter on this occassion, if you ever ask for a 'look up', please only post once - it saves duplication of effort by the volunteers
