Background

History

The hall was built between 1581 and 1584 for Henry Dynne, an Auditor of the Receipt of the Exchequer. A descendant, Mary, daughter of Augustine Earle married William Bulwer and it then came into the Bulwer family of Wood Dalling. The original large park covered approximately 600 acre but has mostly been broken up.
