East Rounton church of St Lawrence contains a splendid Strachan window and another side window celebrating the life of the scholar, explorer, and arabist Gertrude Bell. The village hall designed by George Jack is at East Rounton and there is a War Memorial in front of it. West Rounton is about 1 mile away from East across the fields and has the church of St Lawrence and two pubs, The Grey Horse and the Horse Shoe Inn. West Rounton also contains Whitehouse plant nurseries and is home to Stamfrey farm organic clotted cream. This website is maintained by East Rounton village hall comittee as a service to local residents in the Rountons.</FONT></P> <P><FONT FACE="Arial">The images are from the private collection of the Bell family and photographed by Martin Brown except where noted.
