Oxburgh Hall, House museum in Oxborough, England
The moated courtyard structure features a three-story gatehouse with tall polygonal towers and presents distinct Flemish-style stepped gables and terracotta chimneys.
Sir Edmund Bedingfeld constructed Oxburgh Hall in 1482, utilizing fashionable red brick and incorporating defensive elements including a square moat measuring 75 meters per side.
The Marian Hangings, needlework pieces created by Mary Queen of Scots during her imprisonment, represent notable textile artworks within the house museum collection.
The National Trust maintains regular opening hours for visitors to explore the halls, gardens, and woodland paths, with guided tours available throughout the year.
A concealed priest hole, designed by Nicholas Owen, provided sanctuary for Catholic clergy during periods of religious persecution in post-Reformation England.
