MINSTER LOVELL HALL & ST. KENELMS CHURCH | Exploring the COTSWOLDS Grandest Hall and Saxon Church

Описание: Minster Lovell Hall, located in the village of Minster Lovell in Oxfordshire, England, is a striking example of a late medieval manor house with a rich history dating back to the 15th century. The hall was built around 1431 by William Lovell, a prominent nobleman and a member of the influential Lovell family.

Constructed in the Perpendicular Gothic style, the hall was designed as a luxurious residence, reflecting the wealth and status of its owners. The complex included a great hall, private chambers, and a chapel, all set within picturesque grounds along the banks of the River Windrush.

The adjacent St. Kenelm's Church, which predates the hall, is a beautiful example of English ecclesiastical architecture, with origins in the 12th century. The church, dedicated to the Anglo-Saxon saint Kenelm, features a Norman tower, a 15th-century nave, and a series of richly decorated tombs belonging to the Lovell family.

The connection between the hall and the church underscores the close relationship between the nobility and the Church during the medieval period.
