Now named Flowton Priory House this lovely old building sits at the end of a drive lined with shrubs it is accessible from the bridle path that cuts across the common.
This historic privately owned manor house required a large proportion of new stained glass windows to be made to complement the surviving stained glass of medieval and Victorian origin (heraldic panels by Thomas Willement).
Jude Tarrant was invited to design and make the new windows to be installed in many rooms throughout this fine building.
