Visit to Lytes Cary Manor last week & what a wonderful little Chapel they have!😍 National Trust Website: The Lyte’s family The story starts with William le Lyte, who was a feudal tenant of the estate as early as 1286. He paid an annual rent of 10 shillings or the contents of a swan’s nest on the River Cary. It is believed that it was his grandson, Peter, who built the Chapel in 1343. Six generations of the Lyte family lived at the Manor and the house was gradually expanded over time. The Great Hall was constructed in 1447 by Thomas Lyte and the south wing, kitchens and outhouses were added by 1533 by John Lyte and his wife, Edith. The chapel predates the existing house, having been built around 1343, and functioned as a chantry Chapel, where masses could be said for the souls of the family, both living and dead. ***************************** Historic England Website: William le Lyte held the estate now known as Lytes Cary in 1286, and his descendants remained in possession until 1755. In the mid C14, William's grandson, Peter, built a new stone chapel, and gradually successive generations constructed a courtyard manor house around it. #LytesCary #LytesCaryManor #Chapel #Somerset #NationalTrust
