More about this scene
The clunch and Barnack limestone vaulted undercroft, or basement, of the present house is all that remains of an upper hall of the Benedictine nunnery founded in the 12th century by Isabel the Bolebec. In the 18th century the building was bought by William Hamond, who rebuilt the first floor in a local yellow brick.
