GV II
Wing added to the abbey guest house (qv). Late C14/early C15
with later alterations, in course of major refurbishment and
reconstruction at time of survey (1992). Local grey limestone
rubble; 1990s slate roof, gabled at ends with very steep pitch
(based on archaeological evidence); stack with stone rubble
shaft. Plan: the wing projects at right-angles to the guest
house, to its south east. It consisted of probable store or
service rooms on the ground floor with a heated first-floor
7-bay hall reached by external steps on the south side.
Probably converted into a farmhouse after the Dissolution.
EXTERIOR: 2-window south front with projecting lateral stack
to right of centre with C20 reconstructed arched doorway to
right. Double flight of reconstructed stairs to first-floor
entrance on south side, 2 first floor C20 reconstructed
windows. North side has reconstructed openings: doorway to
ground-floor right with windows alongside to left; 3
reconstructed first-floor windows. C20 timber garderobe on
west end, the position of an earlier garderobe. INTERIOR: 8
reconstructed arch braced trusses of 1991.
