Christchurch Mansion, Tudor house museum in Christchurch Park, Ipswich, England.

The red brick mansion contains preserved period rooms with original furniture, fine clothing, and children's toys from different historical periods.

Edmund Withypoll constructed this Tudor residence around 1548 on the former grounds of the Holy Trinity Priory after Henry VIII's dissolution.

The Wolsey Art Gallery inside the mansion holds a substantial collection of paintings by Suffolk artists John Constable and Thomas Gainsborough.

The mansion opens from Tuesday to Saturday between 10:00 and 16:00 during winter months, with extended hours until 17:00 in summer.

Felix Cobbold rescued the building from demolition in 1894 by purchasing it from developers and donating it to Ipswich Corporation.
