CHAPTER IV
10/13

Close by, and possibly adjoining, was the Barton Gate which led to the stables and outhouses.

The long low building of stone and timber, washed over in the old manner with lime, which rises from the grass on our left was once the Almonry of the Abbey.

It is now occupied as offices and separate dwellings.

The front is extremely picturesque with its buttresses, perpendicular window and quaint openings.

The western portion, built mainly of timber, with here and there the remains of carving, and a diaper imprinted on the plaster, contains the great fireplace, clearly indicated on this side by the mass of solid stonework.
