Day 243
August 31, 2010Our local hall – Balborough Hall is a school that educates children from 3-11.
The school is situated in parkland on the edge of our village, centred around a beautiful Elizabethan Mansion House. The building is a grade 1 16th century listed building.
Originally built by Sir Francis Rodes, circa 1583-84, as the family seat, the hall’s Elizabethan design is attributed to Robert Smythson, one of a noted family of architects.
