The Estate at Felbrigg Hall

Felbrigg Church stands about a quarter of a mile south-east of the Hall. The building is mainly late 14th century. The interior is full of interest and character and likely not much changed since the celebrated Norwich School painter John Sell Cotman was married here in January 1809. The nave is given over to Georgian box pews and the roofs of nave and chancel are good examples of 15th century carpentry.

Created by joining together the three smaller ponds, Felbrigg lake was the perfect place to lazily unwind during long summer days or entertain visiting members of the genteel set who were enjoying holidays in nearby fashionable Cromer. Today, it is home to plenty of wildlife, and you can enjoy brilliant views as you walk around the lake.

Found as you walk around the Victory V, you will find the Ice House. The bricks are late 17th century type, with one of them dated 1633, but the Gothic detailing suggests they are 18th century. It is thought that it may have been built of bricks from a demolished section of the 17th century park wall. This is not a partially collapsed ice house but was built to look like a ruin. The shaft is 28 feet deep and is a favourite place for the bats to hibernate.
