Rowcester Abbey
A near-derelict abbey located in Southmoltonshire, and the setting for the novel Ring for Jeeves. The abbey dates as far back as the Renaissance, and is alleged to be haunted, a fact that attracts Mrs. Spottsworth, a self-taught psychic, to buy the abbey from impoverished aristocrat Bill Belfry, 9th Earl of Rowcester.
