123 | This name applies to a good three storey slated house one sunK and two above Ground, it was erected in 1861 by the Duchess of Leeds as a R.C. [Roman Catholic] school & teachers house, But as the congregation is small and not many R.C. [Roman Catholic] Children in the Parish it was not considered Expedient to incur the expense of a Qualified teacher, the house was then converted into a small Nunnery, and the school is taught by the Nuns. There is accommodation for six Nuns and a Lady Superior. |
