At BucklandAbbey there are omissions such as Drake the slaver and Drake the pirate, although it could be argued for reasons not of sanitisation but in order not to sensationalise.
The historical working class employees at BucklandAbbey were also noticeable by their absence, the kitchens and beautiful gardens devoid of the labour and toil that must have been required to run them, many rooms led to locked doors or blocked stair cases.
BucklandAbbey did provide activities for children and did have an educational room set aside for school parties, which from a casual observers perspective did seem enjoyable for them.
