Paycocke's, Tudor merchant estate in Coggeshall, England
The half-timbered house features intricate wooden carvings throughout its structure, including detailed linenfold panels and ornamental beams displaying merchant marks.
Thomas Paycocke constructed this residence in 1510 for his bride Margaret Harrold, incorporating their initials into the architectural elements across the building.
The estate reflects the economic power of wool merchants in medieval Essex through its grand architectural design and elaborate wooden decorations.
The National Trust maintains this Grade I listed building, offering guided tours from 11:00 to 17:00 during summer months at West Street in Coggeshall.
The house contains a hidden wagon entrance facing West Street, which served as the delivery point for raw wool during its time as a textile trading center.
