Kirby Hall, Essex

Kirby Hall is a house in Castle Hedingham, Braintree, Essex.

[1] It was originally the home of John de Vere (c. 1558–1624), eldest brother of Horace and Francis.

They were members of a junior branch of the de Vere family and their first cousin was Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, the owner of Hedingham Castle.

A view of the house features on a medal Muilman had struck to commemorate his fortieth wedding anniversary.

[4][5] It was Grade II listed on 7 August 1952[6] and is now a significant local farmhouse.
