Description:
- Hendrik Dewulf, 1st Baron Brancrug, was granted Hush House after the dissolution of St Brandan's by 'Old Coppernose', King Henry VIII. In an act of unusual generosity for that tight-fisted King, the grant came with the title of Baron, and rights <i>sicut regale</i> - 'like a king', the quasi-independence traditionally accorded to Marcher Lords. Hendrik was clearly determined to live as befitted his new rank, and he expanded the house accordingly to support sufficient staff.

- This place was bright and busy once. It can be again. But it'll be gruelling work to make it so - not suitable work for a Librarian.
