Sker House - from Wikipedia - Sker House is a historical building in Wales. Originally built as a monastic grange of the Cistercian order over 900 years ago, it is situated just outside the village of Kenfig, near Bridgend. Little remains of the original structure and it was completely rebuilt in the late sixteenth century. Its residential form appears to have been determined by the preceding monastic grange. The house was made famous as the basis of R. D. Blackmore's book The Maid of Sker. Go to https://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/300011217-sker-house-cynffig for more details. |
