Image: © Richard Croft Taken: 21 Feb 2015
Grade II* listed, early 18th century façade to a remodelled Tudor building, it was the brotherhood house of the Fraternity of the Virgin Mary. In the mid-18th century it was converted to a private house and given a new classical front, by the Aylesbury lawyer Hugh Barker Bell. The centre bay projects slightly to accentuate the main entrance, which is protected by a porch in a loose Palladian style of two un-fluted Corinthian columns supporting a pediment. Now part of the Buckinghamshire County Museum http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/leisure-and-culture/county-museum/
