We are Lynn and Pete (Pedro) Richmond and we live in North Gloucestershire. “Canowindra” is the name we gave our house.  We have four (now grown) children and when we bought the house we were asked by the builders to give it a name rather than a number.  The children had spent time in Australia when they were small and chose the name “Canowindra” as it is the Aboriginal word for ‘home’.

When I started to show my beagles, “Canowindra” seemed the obvious choice for an affix.  So a little later when Swagger came to live with us, “Canowindra Beagles” was born and came of age when Pippin’s pups were born in June 2006.

We hope you enjoy looking around our 'home on the web' and come back often to check for updates.
