Summary : Curia gatehouse. Late in the 15th century a wing was built from the west front of the friary church to provide a gatehouse to the curia or outer court. The lodgings over the gate passage remain, with several contemporary fireplaces, but the passage is blocked by walling. The building is now used for offices. In excellent condition, much restored with many modern featues, but retains some original features too. |
