Earlier this week I walked in their footsteps again at Dartington Hall.

This view may not have looked that different in 1573 - kitchen and hall as now. But the arches? Remains of windows in buildings in second courtyard that Emery suggests dates from John Holand’s time (c1390s) not part of Sir Arthur Champernowne’s sixteenth century remodelling.
