The experience
About this day out
The picturesque ruins of Minster Lovell Hall, a 15th century Oxfordshire manor house, lie in a beautiful rural setting beside the River Windrush and include a fine hall, tower and nearby dovecote. The hall was built in the 1430s by William, Baron of Lovell and Holand, and was later home to Francis, Viscount Lovell, a close ally of Richard III. After several changes of hands it was abandoned and eventually demolished in the 18th century.
