Restoration of the Grade 1 Listed mansion of King Charles II revealed very early examples of rubbed & gauged arches. Unwashed clay blocks were cut to match the original arches which were laid in lime using traditional methods.

The mansion fell into ruin in the 1970's.  The local Authority purchased the building and restored the property which now houses the Citizens Advice Bureau. The brickwork had been rendered in the 1940's.
