Church House, Ledbury


One of my favourite photographs of Church Lane, the most picturesque street in Ledbury, is this one taken from the opposite end to that most favoured by photographers. On a recent visit I tried to take a photograph of the imposing timber-framed house that features prominently in that shot. It is called Church House and may well have acquired its name because it housed clergy or due to its proximity to St Michael & All Angels. It was built c.1600 and features close studding rather than the cheaper square studding more favoured in this part of western England.
