I think this may be one of them -- it is really stuck right between the church and a huge parking lot for the castle.

It looks rather nice but is tucked away in a walled yard so I've never got to press my nose against the window. Besides, I have a feeling the priest still lives there.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472449597146519943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20123932.post-15193939977825079692015-01-06T06:13:03.925+01:002015-01-06T06:13:03.925+01:00Blue-eyed: wonderful, and there's more to come...Blue-eyed: wonderful, and there's more to come!<br /><br />Sue: I also wondered what will become of this building.
