Home of the Pennyman family for nearly 400 years, this classic Georgian mansion, has a Victorian kitchen and laundry, extensive gardens and estate walks.
Ormesby Hall stands in a landscape deliberately designed so that visitors in the 18th century would first see the impressive stable block from a distance as they travelled up the drive, but would not see the Hall itself until almost at this point.

The Stables are still in use by the local constabulary.
Main entrance to Ormesby Hall drive - approx 1/2 mile to the hall!
