Lady Abbess Lescher suffered from bronchial problems which increased as she got older. In 1897, her doctor, Dr Carey, recommended a stay in Hastings. She remained there for a couple of months, which she hated, being unable to carrying on her duties and being away from her 'children'. Her Hastings Diary can be found in the Haslemere Collection.
