Editorial reading
Attested as a manse in the later fourteenth century, Losmonerie became a lordship only at the end of the sixteenth. The record describes a house of the late fifteenth or early sixteenth century with a round stair tower and a flamboyant Gothic door, a seventeenth-century return wing, and a two-storey Renaissance gallery linking the two. In front of the house lies a kind of garden-court; the agricultural dependencies surround a separate farmyard, and a pillared gate with two pavilions divides the two. The house, the two pavilions and the gate closing the court were listed in 2009.
