The Old Deanery of Wells Cathedral in Wells, Somerset, England dates from the 12th century. Along with the gatehouse and boundary walls has been designated as a Grade I listed building.[1][2][3]
The 12th century building, on Cathedral Green was largely rebuilt in the late 15th century by Dean Gunthorpe. It was further remodelled and the south range refenestrated by Dean Bathurst in the late 17th century.[1]
It is no longer the home of the Dean and now serves as offices for the Diocese of Bath and Wells.
