Prysten House

Prysten House is a Grade I listed 15th century merchant's house situated close to St Andrew's Church in the city of Plymouth, England.^[1] It is a large U-shaped three storey split level house built c. 1498 and extended 1635.

Construction

It is constructed from Plymouth limestone rubble using relieving arches with Dartmoor granite hooded and ogee-framed Tudor dressings to glazed window openings, dry Devon slate roofs and two original lateral chimney stacks. The front has a distinctive and fine granite transomed bay window arrangement over a decorated and hooded doorway.^[2]

History

The building is owned by The Minster Church of St Andrew and has been used as a museum^[3] and a restaurant, but contrary to the misnomer has never been a priest's house, its name originating simply from its close proximity to St Andrew's Church, Plymouth.^[4]

Prysten House is home to the Plymouth Tapestry designed by Eric Mor and displays a model of Plymouth in 1620.^[5] As of April 2015^[update] the museum is not open to the public,^[6] but the restaurant is open.^[7]

Prysten House also features the "Door of Unity" commemorating the War of 1812.

Electrical resistance attributed to contacting interfaces Electrical contact resistance (ECR, or simply contact resistance) is resistance to the flow of electric current caused by incomplete contact of the surfaces through which the current is flowing, and by films or oxide layers on the contacting surfaces. It occurs at electrical connections such as switches, connectors, breakers, contacts, and measurement probes. Contact resistance values are typically small (in the microohm to milliohm ra...
