MARWELL HALL, the seat of W. Long, Esq., in Owslebury parish, Hants; 3½ miles SSE of Winchester. The house is modern; but it succeeded a previous one, which claims to have been the scene of the "lost bride; ''and it contains a chest in which the unhappy lady is alleged to have hid herself. An ancient residence of the bishops of Winchester stood at Marwell Manor Farm; and is now represented by some plain doorways of the 14th and 15th centuries, and by a moat.
