About Us

Bishops Crest are our newest apartments in Barrow-upon-Humber. Both are cosy studio apartments fully furnished and with the added bonus of the communal gardens at our Paptist Mews site. Barrow upon Humber is a village and civil parish in Lincolnshire, England. Many of the buildings in the centre of the village are of 18th and 19th century origin. There are several buildings of note in the village including Down Hall, Barrow Hall, Forester's Hall and West Cote Farm. There are two public houses: ... Morethe Royal Oak and the Six Bells. A third public house, the Red Lion, situated in the lower High Street, reverted to a residence in the early 20th century. Barrow contains the site of a late Anglo-Saxon monastery, which has been fully excavated. The location is now built-over, but is marked by a plaque in the village. King Wulfhere gave land to Caedda (Saint Chad) in the 7th century at Ad Barvae (at the wood). It was on this site that the monastery was developed. The street adjacent to the monastery site is still known as St Chad. The market place is identified by its stock stones. The metal cross that topped the stones was removed late in the first half of the 20th century. During the Middle Ages, local miscreants were tied to the stones as public punishment and the stones on the south side are worn indicating the place where the unfortunate person was restrained. Whilst the market place has been remodelled to accommodate car parking, the original shape and size of the market place can be determined from the alignment of the houses on the northern and eastern sides.Just a short trip into Hull and the natural beauty of the countryside around the village. Perfect for a short break or for a longer stay.All our apartments in Barrow are NON SMOKING, if smoking has occurred in one of our properties we will issue a fine from £25.00 up to £500.00. Less
