For over four centuries the Brethren have served their country surviving battle to come back to the Lord Leycester to a protected life within these ancient walls. With a home and a monthly honorarium, the Brethren signed up to live by the Hospital’s way of communal living.
In 1571 the first twelve Brethren arrived and lived in partitions in the halls of the Lord Leycester. Today each Brother has his own apartment. Over 450 Brethren have passed through these halls participating in a way of life that Queen Elizabeth 1 might recognize today!
