Gunton Hall

[1] The current house was built for Sir William Harbord, 1st Baronet in the 1740s by the architect Matthew Brettingham.

[2] The grounds were developed by Charles Harbord, 5th Baron Suffield, employing William Milford Teulon as the landscaper.

[3] However, the hall was almost destroyed by fire in 1882 and lay derelict for nearly a century before Kit Martin, an architect, bought the hall in 1980 and converted it into individual houses.

[4] The boathouse was rebuilt as a studio by the artist Gerard Stamp in 2004.

[6] It is a Grade I listed building,[7] and is under the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.
