Rougham Hall was bombed in 1940 and is a ruin. Please be aware that the ruin of Rougham Hall is not open to the public except as part of guided tours. Details of these will be announced on website. During the current period of the Coronavirus pandemic no tours are planned. Anyone found trespassing at the hall site will have their details taken and be required to leave immediately.
I know this hall as I used to play around there when I was a child. I was brought up on the farm on the estate many years ago.
A great experience and a shame to know the building will eventually collapse and will not be saved. Sad to see the hall in the state it is in but then perhaps the building would not be so interesting if renovated. Unfortunatly we were not allowed inside the hall, but the saftey reasons for not being allowed in were underatandable and appreciated. The owner and grandson of the owners when the building was bombed was the tour guide. He was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgable and helped to create and rich and enjoyable experience. I would recommend this experience for any history buffs and those interested in exploring.
My g.g.g. Grandparents Philip Bennet and Anne Pilkington built Rougham Hall. My great grandfather was born there. Sad to see it as a ruin but it's still beautiful.
Very atmospheric. Photo taken on an organised walk from Blackthorpe Barn. Hoping to return one day if the walks are repeated next year.
Amazing piece of history, great to explore the such a beauty of English heritage that has an interesting history.
It's ok.
