proprietà


Explanation:
ciao manuela, credo che prop stia per property, quindi "proprietà" ....
cmq dalle mie ricerche Wardrobe Place è il nome di una chiesa che si trova a Londra ..... quindi intenderanno "quando ci siamo recati all'interno della chiesa, in questa proprietà ....." suppongo, non so se può esserti di aiuto ....
