Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Master of Marton, Vol. 1 of 3 Tradition declared, and I believe in this case it was correct, that the Priory House had for merly been part of an ancient religious establish ment, which, being dismantled and partially de stroyed at the dissolution of the Monasteries, had remained in its dilapidated condition for more than a century and a half, at the end of which period it fell into the hands of an ancestor of the present occupant. The roof and upper part of the edifice had been broken down, but on the massive stone walls which still remained, its new owner erected the present roomy and substantial abode, which, with its bu ' washed walls, its brown-tiled roof, its mullioned windows below and latticed easements above, Often caught the eye of the traveller on the high-road between Bedesby and Marton.
