hedgebirdA curious anecdote of 2000 words from the youth of Sutcliff's mother, Elizabeth Lawton. It was written for the anthology The House of the Nightmare and Other Eerie Tales, edited by Kathleen Lines, which you can read here at Internet Archive.
You may already know this one from the Short Stories collection put together byisis. Technically, though, it's non-fiction, and since I'm posting all of Sutcliff's essays that I've found, here it is again for completeness's sake.

If you want to know more about the redoubtable Elizabeth and her brothers, they of course figure largely in Sutcliff's memoir Blue Remembered Hills.
