in August 1896,  was staying at Buscot Park. In a letter to her mother, she described how Alexander Henderson took her to visit Kelmscott. She was nor impressed, finding the house 'lovely for its oldness but oh! so artistic and grubby'. May Morris was the only one at home, and Maud 'stared at Miss Morris
and wondered why she dressed in such a sloppy way with no stays'.

Near Kelmscott, Cram Price had his holiday home at Broadway Tower. The
Morrises, Burne-Joneses and Charles and Kare Faulkner were all frequent visitors
to the Tower, and it became in many ways an extension of the life at Kelmscott
with the Morrises providing supplies and bedding from Kelmscott for Price's
visirors.6
The Morrises' first recorded visit was on 4 September 1876 and there
were several visits in 1877 and 1878 when Price lost the lease of the Tower
