Minster Lovell - Old Hall - Northwest Building ruins
This part of the complex that was once Minster Lovell Hall (or Manor House) is referred to on plans simply as the "Northwest Building" - only its western wall survives which can be seen here. It has a rather fine window in it which can be seen in close-up here SP3211 : Minster Lovell - Window in Northwest Building
See shared description below:
Minster Lovell Hall

The ruins of the mid C15th Minster Lovell Hall lie between the church of St Kenelm Link and the River Windrush in a very attractive and picturesque site. The hall fell into a ruinous condition in the mid C18th, though an engraving of 1729 LinkExternal link suggests it was still in good condition as late as this.
The manor and hall were owned by a number of different people since its construction in 1431/32 for William 7th Lord Lovell. It is now in the care of English Heritage (see LinkExternal link )
A plan of the ruins can be seen here LinkExternal link
It is EH Grade I listed LinkExternal link
and the site is a listed Ancient Monument LinkExternal link
