Bark House was originally used to store oak bark before it was sent to the Keswick tannery. In the 1960's it was used by the Scouts as a bunk house and also as a bothy.<br /> <br /> More recently, and now owned by the National Trust, it is occasionally opened up for visitors. This gives them somewhere to come and warm up by the fire and eat their sandwiches. It has no electricity so is a very basic one room space.</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/people/carsten_tb/">10b travelling (sorry: glitch, so resubmitting)</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/carsten_tb/54961114419/" title="TV Smith and the Bored Teenagers - support for Die Toten Hosen at the O2 Korum (Kennington, London)"><img src="https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54961114419_a10430f2ba_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="TV Smith and the Bored Teenagers - support for Die Toten Hosen at the O2 Korum (Kennington, London)" /></a></p> <p>This was the longest queue I have experienced in London.

Domus Dei (Hospital of Saint Nicholas and Saint John the Baptist) was an alms-house and hospice at Old Portsmouth, Hampshire, United Kingdom. It is now also known as the Royal Garrison Church and is an English Heritage property and a Grade II listed building.<br /> <br /> The hospice was established by Peter des Roches (sometimes incorrectly named as de Rupibus), Bishop of Winchester and William of Wrotham in around 1212 A.D.<br /> <br /> In 1450 an unpopular advisor to the king, Bishop Adam Moleyns of Chichester was conducting a service at the chapel of Domus Dei when a number of naval seamen (resentful of being only partially paid and only provided with limited provisions) burst into the church, dragged out the bishop and murdered him.<br /> <br /> As a result of this the entire city of Portsmouth was placed under the Greater Excommunication, an interdict which lasted until 1508, removed at the request of Bishop Foxe of Winchester.<br /> <br /> In 1540, like many other chantry buildings, it was seized by King Henry VIII and until 1560 was used as an armoury. After 1560, a mansion built close by the south-side became the home of the local military governor.<br /> <br /> In 1662 the mansion hosted the wedding of King Charles II and Princess Catherine of Braganza.<br /> <br /> Towards the end of the seventeenth century it fell into disrepair until it was restored in 1767 to become the Garrison church. Once again, the Church fell into disrepair and in 1865 a new restoration project began under the direction of G. E. Street which lasted ten years.<br /> <br /> On 10 January 1941 the buildings of Domus Dei were partially destroyed in an attack by German bombers, when all the stained glass windows were blown out and the nave was rendered roofless by incendiary bombs and a single high explosive bomb. New glazing was subsequently fitted. Apart from the East window with its traditional design, all the other windows show much of the British Army's relationship to the Church and the City of Portsmouth. The chancel is intact, but the nave remains roofless.<br /> <br /> The aisles but not the central nave were re-roofed in 1995. In October 2021, the building was one of 142 sites across England to receive part of a £35-million grant from the government's Culture Recovery Fund.</p> <p><a
