What is recorded here

The Court lost its buildings but kept a limestone plaque bearing four coats of arms, now preserved in a Wyestown threshing shed. What remains is a fragment of identity, pulled from a place that no longer exists on the land. The missing convent and Gracedieu connection suggest women, prayer and power once moved through this area, even if the stones no longer mark it.

A limestone plaque bearing four coats of arms originally located in the Court, was removed to the threshing shed of a farmyard at Wyestown (DU007-027----). All the buildings at the Court as indicated on the 1927 ed. OS 6-inch map have been removed. There is a local tradition that there was a convent here which was linked to Gracedieu (VBSCD 1994).
