This walk starts at Faithlegg Church. About:
Faithlegg was one of the first parishes to be founded following the Norman conquest and the lands were given to a Bristol merchant and ship owner named Aylward. The family was later deposed after the Cromwellian invasion and the lands were granted to the Bolton family. The Boltons built Faithlegg House and were replaced by the catholic Mahon Powers in 1819. This family was replaced by the De La Salle order in 1936, and in 1999 the house and farm opened as a hotel and golf course.
This walk will explore that history through the eyes of those who lived on the estate. And not just the wealthy, but farmers, gardeners, ladies maids, saints and sinners.
