spylaw4 Posted October 16, 2014 Share #14533 Posted October 16, 2014 That implies a religious foundation - I thought it looked a bit church-ish. Is it NT or EH? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dem331 Posted October 16, 2014 Share #14536 Posted October 16, 2014 Stoneleigh Abbey. Your original picture was very interesting. Certainly looked late medieval and religious but I couldn't quite make out what it was, with the strange battlements above the arches. I now know that it was a gatehouse.

dem331 Posted October 16, 2014 Share #14537 Posted October 16, 2014 Credit should go to Stuart. I would not have made the Jane Austen connection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thighslapper Posted October 16, 2014 Share #14538 Posted October 16, 2014 .... err .... I suspect that was a lucky guess...... Yes .... Stoneleigh Abbey it is ...... originally a Cistercian Monastery, robbed by Henry VIII and subsequently bought by extended/rebuilt by relatives of Jane Austen who often visited. I have lived 20 minutes from it for nearly 30 years and only visited it for the first time last sunday........ Over to you again ........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
