More about this scene
These cottages have hardly changed at all in the last four decades. The patch of grass at the front has gone. Opposite the cottages stands Douai Abbey. The community at the Abbey has spanned more than three and a half centuries. In 1903 the monks left their monastery in France and crossed the channel to Berkshire. They took over the existing St Mary's College, transforming it into a leading Roman Catholic public school for boys, which eventually closed in 1999.
