Castle House, Dedham

Castle House in Dedham, Essex, England, was the home of Sir Alfred Munnings from 1919 till his death in 1959.

In 1965 Castle House Trust was formed whereby the house itself, surrounding land, all of Munnings' paintings still in the possession of Lady Munnings, and further amounts of money and investments were made over to the Trust to form the basis of a museum of his works.

The original bequest to the trust formed the basis of the largest collection of Sir Alfred's works to be found worldwide.

The Museum is personalised through the retention of the Munnings' original furniture and artefacts in his old home, it also contains examples from his full life span as an artist.

In 2018 it housed an exhibition of Sir Alfred Munnings' paintings from the Canadian War Museum for the first time.
