Marks Hall

Marks Hall was a Jacobean country house some 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Coggeshall in Essex, England.

They descended in the Markshall family until the estate was sold to John Cole, who renovated parts of the house.

In 1605 Robert Honywood purchased Marks Hall from Deraugh's grandson, William, pulled down part of the old timber-framed house and built a new brick building in 1609.

[2][3] Thomas Phillips Price (1844-1932), a Welsh landowner, mine owner, and Liberal politician, purchased Marks Hall, then a mansion and deer park, at auction in 1898.

He made provision in his Will to leave the Marks Hall estate to the nation in the interest of agriculture, arboriculture and forestry.
