Felbrigg Hall : ウィキペディア英語版 | Felbrigg Hall
Felbrigg Hall is a 17th-century country house located in Felbrigg, Norfolk, England.〔''OS Explorer Map 24'' (Edition A 1997) – ''Norfolk Coast Central''. ISBN 0-319-21726-4.〕 Part of a National Trust property, the unaltered 17th-century house is noted for its Jacobean architecture and fine Georgian interior. Outside the house are a walled garden, an orangery and orchards. ==History== Felbrigg estate, originally home to the Felbrigg family, was long the home of members of the Wyndham family, since the first John Wyndham (d. 1475), acquired the estate from the Felbrigg family. Thomas Wyndham (d. 1522) was a councilor to King Henry VIII.〔(Hamline University (accessed Oct 2010) )〕 Later residents included John Wyndham (1558–1645), probably the builder of Felbrigg Hall. The last Wyndham of Felbrigg was William Wyndham (d. 1810). The last owner of the house before it passed into National Trust ownership was Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer. The original heir, Robert's brother Richard, was killed in action in the Second World War. A memorial to Richard Ketton-Cremer was constructed in the woods behind the house by Robert. Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer wrote a number of books, particularly about Norfolk, including ''Felbrigg: the Story of a House'',〔(WorldCat OCLC Number: 6325329 )〕 and ''Norfolk in the Civil War'', Faber, 1969.〔(Norfolk in the Civil War ) Retrieved 10 August 2013〕 In the latter, he indicates his health is failing. Robert Ketton-Cremer never married, and with no heirs, left the estate to the National Trust on his death in 1969. Part of the estate was acquired by the Beeston Hall school. Christopher Mackie, husband of author Mary Mackie, was administrator, or houseman, of Felbrigg Hall until 1990. Mary Mackie wrote a number of books on their experiences, the most successful of which have been ''Cobwebs and Cream Teas'' and ''Dry Rot and Daffodils''.
