Bolwick Hall, Georgian country house in Aylsham, England.
Bolwick Hall is a Georgian country house featuring red brick walls, low pitched slate roofing, and a three-bay front with brick pilasters and sash windows. The building displays the careful craftsmanship typical of 18th-century English country house design.
The estate appears in the Domesday Book of 1086 and received its current exterior design around 1800. During the intervening centuries, it passed through many hands before settling into its later role as an established property.
The property incorporates both Saxon and Tudor architectural elements, reflecting multiple periods of English building traditions through its structural features and design.
The gardens with mature trees, a vegetable garden, and lakeside walks open to visitors once each year. The best time to visit is during the designated opening day as part of the National Gardens Scheme.
A former mill on the grounds once had one of Norfolk's largest water wheels, powered by a dammed tributary of the Mermaid stream. This impressive engineering work has long since disappeared but shaped how the land was developed around it.
