Faulkbourne Hall, Manor house in Faulkbourne, England.
Faulkbourne Hall is a red-brick manor house featuring multiple turrets and decorative flags displaying family initials across its varied architectural elements. The structure stands within a Grade II listed park and garden setting that encompasses the religious building on its grounds.
The manor received permission to convert from timber-frame to brick construction in 1439, marking a shift toward more durable building methods. This transformation established the structural foundation that would endure for centuries.
The parish church of Saint Germanus located within the grounds reflects the hall's long connection to local religious life and community gatherings.
The hall is located roughly 8 kilometers southeast of Braintree near the A12 and B1018 roads, making it accessible by car. Visiting the parkland setting requires advance planning as the property may have limited public access during certain periods.
The roof displays metal flag vanes shaped with family initials that were installed during the 260 years of Bullock family ownership. These decorative touches remain a distinctive visual reminder of the family's long stewardship over the property.
