Hunting party in Ockwells Manor, a timber-framed 15th century manor house near Maidenhead, in the English county of Berkshire. An early example of a manor built without fortifications, Sir Nikolaus Pevsner called it "the most refined and the most sophisticated timber-framed mansion in England". It preserves a superb set of contemporary heraldic stained glass in the hall showcasing his Lancastrian connections. Many of its bargeboards and other exterior timbers are run with richly carved mouldings.
