More about this scene

A Benedictine priory was founded here in 1135; many of the monastic buildings were destroyed during the Reformation. The plaque on the second cottage on the left bears the initials 'CBAM' and is dated 1708. In the north-west corner of the parish lies the ancient Hatfield Forest.
