A glorious Grade 1 listed site dating back to the 12 th century when it was a monastic hospital. The main attraction is that during the English Civil War (1642–1651), it was used as the headquarters for Charles II and his Royalist forces before their catastrophic defeat. On display, is Oliver Cromwell's death mask with a rumour that he made a Faustian bargain with the devil to ensure victory to only die seven years later. There is also a good view of the Fort Royal hill from the garden.
