Mannington Hall in Norfolk was built in 1464. The house is a beautiful example of mid-15th century medieval architecture, although the interior was extensively altered during the 19th century. The first house on the site was built before the Norman Conquest, in 1066, after which it was granted by William the Conqueror to William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey. Mannington was recorded as 'Manctura' in the Domesday Book in 1086. In 1291, the house and estate passed to Maude Turrell, the sole heiress of Walter Turrell. Maude was Lord of the Manor in her own right. She later bequeathed Mannington to her second husband, Henry Lumner. He died shortly thereafter, leaving the house and estate to his son and heir William Lumner. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The Lumner family rebuilt Mannington Hall in 1464, creating the magnificent moated house that survives today. In 1585, the Lumner family sold Mannington Hall to the Potts family who owned the estate until 1736. Mannington Hall and the nearby village of Itteringham were then sold to Horatio Walpole, 1st Baron Walpole, the younger brother of The Rt Hon. Sir Robert Walpole, 1st Earl of Orford. Horatio had already purchased the neighbouring estate at Wolterton in 1722. Mannington Hall was used mostly as a dower house until 1858 when Horatio Walpole, 4th (8th) Earl of Orford, made it his main residence. Today, 560 years after it was built, Mannington Hall remains a private family residence. It is currently the home of the Dowager Baroness Walpole.
