Lady-of-the-Vale Care Home with the adjoining Convent of St Emilie (red brick). The Sisters of Saint Joseph of the Apparition are an aging and depleted community who are now in need of care themselves rather than nursing others. To the left, also joined to the main house, is the Chapel where Holy Mass is said for the nuns and residents every Thursday morning.
