London Charterhouse, West Smithfield, London: the Master's Court and the Great Hall

NOTES: The London Charterhouse, founded in 1370-1371 was one of a handful of Carthusian monasteries in England. After the dissolution it passed into the ownership of Lord North, who made substantial alterations. In 1611 it was sold to Thomas Sutton, who created the almshouses which still function today. Severely damaged during the Second World War it was restored by the architects Seely & Paget. The range with the Great Hall was built 1545-1564 by Lord North.
