The Greyfriars

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Greyfriars is a beautiful timber framed building built for a successful local merchant around 1480. It features superb panelled rooms furnished with tapestries and period furniture. Behind the house is a lovely walled garden with wonderful colour in Spring and Autumn.

Greyfriars was scheduled to be destroyed following World War II, but it was rescued from demolition and restored to and refurbished to provide a wonderful glimpse into the world of a 15th century merchant and his family.
