History of Cranleigh House
Katherine and Stewart could not resist buying Cranleigh House, as it is close to the natural power centre Holdstone Down on Exmoor, which has been a place of pilgrimage for world peace since the late 1950’s. Excitingly, the cairn (pile of rocks) on the top is now known locally as 'The Jesus Rocks', due to the history of the connection of the Master Jesus with Holdstone Down and His association with other places in the west country for example Sister's Fountain close to County Gate, Exmoor, Glastonbury & St Just in Roseland, Cornwall. Cranleigh House is built on the site of the ancient weigh house for the Combe Martin Silver Mines. Wonderfully, Joseph of Arimathea, a wealthy merchant, trading with mines in the UK, and his great nephew Jesus are reputed to have visited Combe Martin 2000 years ago and visited this site. There is immense past and recent powerful spiritual history linked with this house and this area. Come and visit and feel the energies here.
