Ampton Hall, Manor house in Ampton, Suffolk, England

Ampton Hall features a Jacobean architectural style with red brick construction, plaintiled roofs, and two main stories plus attic spaces.

The current structure was rebuilt in 1892 by architects Eustace Balfour and Hugh Thackeray Turner following a destructive fire in 1885.

The hall represents the traditional English country estate design, incorporating formal gardens and a lake within its grounds.

The Grade II listed building contains nine internal chimney stacks, multiple cross-wings, and windows with leaded panes throughout its structure.

Robert FitzRoy, who later became the second Governor of New Zealand, was born at Ampton Hall in 1805.
