HBM ~ Inside The Pudding House
This is one of two Pudding Houses in the East Court of Montacute House. They are so called as guests would 'retire' to them to enjoy their puddings following a meal in the main dining room in Tudor and Stuart times. This would give the servants the opportunity to clear and prepare the dining room for the after-dinner entertainment.
