The N. courtyard seen from the NE - the archway on the right corresponds to the one on the left of the view of the W. front; the range on the left contained the hall. Almshouses established by the Earl of Suffolk (owner of Audley End House and James I's Lord Chamberlain from 1603-14, before serving as Lord Treasurer until his dismissal in 1618); built 1605-14 on the site of a medieval building, probably the hospital of Walden Abbey. Listed description: list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1196246 . Visited on a Heritage Open Day.

1907 view shows that the dormer windows are the result of recent restoration, as is the doorway on the far left, it seems: www.francisfrith.com/audley-end/photos/the-abbey-court-ya... .
