<em><strong>Hawthorn Building</strong></em>

Construction of the Hawthorn Building commenced in 1837; during an extension build in 1935, the large house was demolished, revealing two ruined arches from the Church of the Annunciation, which were discovered embedded in the wall cellar, along with many bones, coffins, and architectural fragments.

It is here in the basement where the stone arches were repositioned after the construction of the extension and now form the centrepiece of the De Montfort University Heritage Centre Exhibition.
