| Description: |
One of the oldest medieval houses in Gloucestershire, Leckhampton Court has had a rich and varied history. It dominated village life for some 600 years until the estate was sold at the end of the 19th century. |
| Synopsis: |
The Lords of the Manor included members of important local families -- the Giffards, Norwoods and Tryes -- and this book relates some of their more interesting achievements. During the First World War the Court housed a Red Cross hospital, and in the Second World War a camp was set up in the grounds, occupied in turn by British and US troops and then by German POWs. Today the Court is best known as a Sue Ryder Hospice, noted for its atmosphere of love, compassion, unhurried care and understanding of patients' needs. This book is sold entirely in aid of its running costs. |
