The Place - (Backblip)

It's been a perfect day for sailing and our friends took us for a cruise up and down the River Fal.  We moored up for our picnic lunch near St Mawes  and this house definitely caught our eye with it's very different architecture.....

The Place, St Anthony, a former priory is now the site of the house of the Spry family, Place, was built in 1840 in front of the church of St Anthony in Roseland.  After the dissolution of 1538 part of the priory was used as a residence and parts were pulled down: much of the stone went towards the building of St Mawes Castle.
