Plein air painting 79

Tudor house is a large house (and garden) in Southampton that has a long history, dating back to the 1100's. It has seen many different uses over the centuries. The section shown is largely Tudor and was heavily restored in the early 21st century, including building a steel frame in to the construction to strengthen it. It is now used as a museum exploring the history of the area over different centuries, depending on what part of the building is being viewed. Behind the house are modern office of very recent construction in comparison, as seen from St Michael's Square.
