Stepping into Sir Algernon Osborn's study, one is immediately struck by the grandeur and historical significance of this remarkable space. The photograph showcases a breathtaking view from the study to the dining room, offering a glimpse into the past. The medieval vaulting that adorns the ceiling harkens back to the priory's origins as a Gilbertine Priory, adding an air of mystique and enchantment to this already awe-inspiring setting. Photographed in 1893 by Bedford Lemere for Sir Algernon and architect Herbert Hawks, this image perfectly encapsulates their vision for preserving history while embracing Victorian design elements.
