What reading level is Memorials of Old Northamptonshire book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Approaching the front door of the house, the visitor is at once struck by a very handsome old bay window, and on entering finds himself, after passing through a small entrance, in the old hall, by far the most interesting feature of the house. A handsome carved fireplace, orna- mented with coats of arms, is opposite the window, and above the latter is a small room, which was formerly reached Fawsley. Ioi by a staircase in the angle between the window and the hall ; but this, unfortunately, was
...destroyed many years ago, so that the room is practically inaccessible. Tradition says that here the secret printing-press used for the Martin Marprelate tracts was kept ; but tradition, I think, must be at fault, since Sir Richard Knightley himself says at his trial that it was kept in the nursery, and this tiny apart- ment could hardly have been appropriated to that purpose.
The hall itself was built by Sir Edmund Knightley between the years 1537 and 1543. It is 51 ft. Long by 23 ft. Wide, land 43 ft.
