Sudbury Hall
The ideal family day out - an intriguing house, an entertaining museum and a restful garden. Home of the Vernon family until gifted to the Trust in 1967, the Hall is an unexpected mixture of architectural styles, with remarkable carvings, plasterwork and painting. Richly decorated, it has a collection
of family portraits and a magnificent carved staircase. The formal gardens and meadows lead to the tree-fringed lake.
- Sudbury is home to Kestrels, Grey Herons, Grass Snakes, dragon flies, newts, frogs, toads, Little and Tawny Owls and Woodpeckers.The National Trust Museum of Childhood
Situated in the 19th century service wing of Sudbury Hall, the National Trust Museum of Childhood contains fascinating displays about children from the 18th century onwards.School Bookings by arrangement with theEducation Officer 01283 585022
