This part of the house was built in 1840
This room was used by Nigel’s Great Grandmother Constance Louisa. The room looks East and South and gets lots of sunshine. You should be able to see the Giant Redwood Tree from the window. On the south lawn there is a Ginko Tree – these are trees left over from the Ice Age.
‘Cousin Julia’ says that Constance Louisa had 5 babies in this room ……. But we are not sure ………………………. Of course, as Julia says, the bed is at present in the fireplace – it would probably have been in what is now the bathroom ………
