From Images of England
SO 51 NE WELSH BICKNOR CP COURTFIELD 6/167 The Hermitage GV II Folly. Mid-C19. Sandstone rubble, hipped stone tiled roof. Consists of a tall section of a "ruined" wall with square plan chapel to rear. Gothic ruin, two rows of three Early English style pointed arched lights with roll moulded edges. Semi-circular headed Norman style window with lattice leaded glazing to sides of chapel at rear. Built as an eye-catcher from Courtfield (qv), presumably also once visible from the river and main road and hence contributing to the picturesque setting of the house.
