Image House

On the walls of Image House are to be found a number of carved stone heads. These are reputedly cursed by an 18th century poacher, and represent the constables, keepers and magistrates responsible for his transportation. They were carved upon his return home from Australia where he had spent time for his punishment. Image House is a Grade II Listed Building.

The tomb of Sir Hugh de Calverley went through a series of incidents of damage in times past, because the alabaster was being ground and then given to sheep as medicine as part of some bizarre custom!
