Title
Markenfield Hall, Doorway to House in courtyard - HLS05856
Description
Slide 11 - The Markenfield arms are also to be found on the terminal of the label mould of a doorway on the eastern range of buildings facing the courtyard.
On the whole the spirit of medieval times seems to brood over the exterior of Markenfield, but is not quite so manifest within, this being altered to suit modern needs.
It is fortunate, however, that the whole building is kept in such careful repair both by landlord and tenant, and let us hope it will long continue to do so and thus delight and instruct future generations, who come, like us to view this ancient Manor Hall, of feudal times.
