The 15th Century Grade II listed Moot Hall stands by the seafront on the Marine Parade in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex. However, for hundreds of years, the house stood miles away in the grounds of Horstead Place, near Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
Incredibly, in 1910 it was moved, brick-by-brick and timber-by-timber, from its old home and rebuilt in its current location.
In Bury, the house had been used as a courtroom and granary before it was drawn to the attention of two directors of Christies, Gill and Reigat, who wanted a Tudor house by the sea.
And so it was, on their whim, that Moot Hall was demolished, with every last piece being labelled and taken to Clacton by horse-drawn cart, where it was lovingly restored.
Once there, the owners made do without a staircase for 24 years, before they bought and installed wooden stairs which were formerly part of London's Waterloo Bridge.

I am a visual story teller based in southern Pennsylvania, USA and my imagery is inspired from everyday objects and situations I encounter through my travels. My work has been exhibited and sold at the Bradford Avenue Galleries (Allinson Gallery and Huston Gallery) at Chester County Art Association, in addition to this online store. My images have also been exhibited at Panorama XXL, Rouen, France and the Cincinnati Museum Center, Cincinnati, USA. I hope you will find something that inspires you, amuses you, makes you think, smile, frown, or perhaps just scratch your head. Go on, dive in... and for those of you who do so, I offer a big thank you for looking through my window on the world! ~Richard ReevePhotos Inspiring...

Richard Reeve replied:
Thank you, Paul. During my childhood this house always intrigued me and I often peeked through the gaps in the brick wall. I wanted to recreate that feeling here.
