Comments at the bottom include "a place in which I spent some time in my youth. At that time i.e. 1934/1936 it was a hill station for the British Army and the families would stay here whilst their men were serving on the plains in places such as [[Risalpur]], [[Nowshera]] and [[Rawalpindi]]. I smell pine trees these days and the memory of Khanspur comes flooding back to me, a memory that is evocative of extreme, youthful pleasure pursuits". *[https://web.archive.org/web/20130918034815/http://www.panoramio.com:80/photo/2623031 Photograph: Khanspur Church] panoramio.com, now archived.
