Recording Your Heritage Online

Some early interior details survive (eg water chute and shot hole), while the grounds contain surprises, most notably the detached gunroom - 18th century in present form but the two transverse vaults in the lower part may indicate 16th-century work. Also plain, 17th century sundial with cube dial and ball finial.
