History of The Old Deanery

In 1625 the Old Deanery was built on the site of a former monastery of St Wilfred. Lewis Carroll spent time at the Old Deanery in the early 19th Century and in later years the army used the building during the Second World War.

In more recent years, a full refurbishment of this grade two listed red star building and the interior was emabarked upon in 2001 to provide the 11 bedroomed hotel and restaurant as seen today.
