Какова история этого здания;
A Vicarage built on the site where Edward Benson was once a visiting vicar for a short period. The land was donated by the duchy to the diocese and the then Prince of Wales part paid to build the house to attract Edward Benson to the area. He was appointed first Bishop of Truro and went on to be archbishop of Canterbury and is buried in Westminster cathedral. (He never did end up staying here after all it should be stated).
