Saxham Hall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saxham Hall is a two storey Palladian house situated just outside Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, England. It is by Joseph Patience and dates from the 1790s. Its most striking feature is the large, generous portico, which has a pediment with arms and large columns. Inside, fine painted ceilings are of note, along with a room decorated by the 18th century artist Angelica Kauffmann R.A. The gardens are reputedly by Capability Brown and feature a Moorish temple, polygonal lodge and tea house. The house is owned by Colonel & Mrs David Gordon Lennox and is occasionally opened to the public
