Point 2

Abbot House is a beautiful A Listed building dating back over 500 years, to at least the 16th Century. The distinctive โ€˜pink hooseโ€™ is steeped in royal and industrial heritage. It has had practical uses over the centuries from iron forgery to bakery to house to doctorโ€™s surgery.

Today the house is a bustling place again with a gift shop and cafรฉ on the ground floor and studio spaces upstairs which are home to talented artists, designers and makers. It also hosts lots of interesting workshops throughout the year.

Another lovely feature is the garden which is a lovely place to relax and take in the views over to the Abbey.
