The Lower Hall, looking from the passage to the front door towards the drawing room door. The door at the end of the passage led out into the vegetable garden (known as the 'potato patch') and Glasshouse.

The bathroom passage. There was a hatch here from which the bells downstairs could be rung by tugging the wires.

A view of the 'front' door showing the bricked-up window that was blocked as people in the road could see the family at dinner. The Bull Girls invented the idea that it was bricked up to stop the ghostly nun peering in.

The Rectory Drive from the kitchen end looking toward the tennis courts.. Curiously, the drive was in much the same place when the previous rectory occupied the spot

The 'nuns walk'. This once was a view over neatly-kempt lawns. There is a low boundary wall in the distance. This path was used as a short-cut from Rodbridge down to Belchamp Brook, and across to Bulmer.
