Felbrigg Hall, Norfolk - a photo on Flickriver

            Felbrigg Hall, set in a rolling landscape park, is one of the most elegant country houses in East Anglia. The Felbrigg estate, at one time one of the largest estates in Norfolk, originally home to the Felbrigg family was acquired in the 15th century by the Wyndham family one of whom, Thomas Wyndham, was a councillor to King Henry VIII. John Wyndham (1558–1645) and his son Thomas were probably the builders of Felbrigg Hall. The south front we see today was formed out of the carcass of an early Tudor building and dates from 1621-4. The last Wyndham of Felbrigg was William Wyndham who died in 1810. The last owner of the house before it passed into National Trust ownership was Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer who never married, and with no heirs, left the estate to the National Trust on his death in 1969 who care for the grand house and an estate of 1,760 acres of parkland including the 520 acre Great Wood.
