Bolwick Hall

Bolwick Hall is located at Marsham, Norfolk, 1 mile south of Aylsham.

[1] Landscaped gardens and parkland surrounding the late Georgian hall (not open to the public), are attributed to Humphry Repton.

The ornamental lake was formed by the damming of The Mermaid a minor tributary of the River Bure to provide water for the Bolwick watermill.

The watermill was an estate mill, originally belonging to the hall.

The mill was below the level of the dammed Bolwick lake and because the volume of water produced by the Mermaid was not great, the watermill had one of the largest diameter wheels in the county at 28 feet (8.5 m).
