Shrubland Hall, Coddenham, is a historic English country house with planned gardens in Suffolk, England built in the 1770s. The Hall was used as a health clinic in the second half of the 20th century. In 2012 it was used as residential accommodation for the private higher education establishment, the British Institute of Technology & E-commerce (BITE). In 2015 it was for sale and described as having 24 bedrooms. ==History== The first recorded owner of the estate was Robert de Shrubeland, although there is evidence of occupation on the site since the Roman period. Shrubland Old Hall was built by the Booth family in the early 16th century and demolished in the early 19th century. The present Grade II * listed hall was designed by James Paine for the Revd. John Bacon in the early 1770s. It was bought in 1788 by Sir William Fowle Middleton, Bt, who commissioned architect John Gandy-Deering to remodel it in the early 1830s. There was further remodelling of the building for Sir William between 1849 and 1855 by Sir Charles Barry, who also created the terraced gardens. Paine's central block was built in 3 storeys with a 5 bay frontage, to which Gandy-Deering added 3 further bays to either side. The whole is constructed of Gault brick with dressings of limestone and stucco.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title= List entry Number: 1033252 ) 〕 The parkland was styled by Humphry Repton and still retains the deer park and walled garden. After Sir William's death in 1860, the property passed to his cousin Sir George Nathaniel Broke Middleton, and from him in 1882 to his niece Jane Anne Broke, eldest daughter of Captain Charles Acton Vere-Broke, and her husband James St Vincent Saumarez, 4th Baron de Saumarez. The Hall was used as a convalescent home during the First World War and the Old Hall as a brigade HQ during the Second World War. In the 1960s the 6th Baron de Saumarez established a health clinic in the property which continued in the time of the 7th Baron. 〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title= Shrubland Park ) 〕 Shrubland Hall Health Clinic operated in the hall adjoining Shrubland Park Gardens until 2 April 2006, when the Shrubland estate, totalling some , was put up for sale with an asking price of £23 million.
