Bowthorpe Hall main east front [5993] 1978-09-09
This property belonged to the Yaxleys in the 16c and was
for many years the home of Catholic recusancy. About 1620
Henry Yaxley, with a view to defeating forfeiture as a
recusant, conveyed the property to one Browne of Colney
as a trustee who it appears proved dishonest. Sir Robert
Yallop rescued this and other properties during the
Commonwealth and for his good services Yaxley conveyed
Bowthorpe to him. Sir Robert died in 1705. The Hall is of
17c style and was probably rebuilt by Sir Robert. |

Built by the Jenney family. Their crest, a falconer's
hand gloved, from which a falcon is rising, appears in
the terracotta panels with a monogram of two J's crossed
and an E connected by a knot of intricate design. They
were probably intended for John Jenney who lived at
Cressingham in 1556, and his wife Elizabeth. Sometimes
erroneously called a priory because in the 13c the manor
belonged to the prior and convent of Norwich. |

In 1541 William Lumner obtained a licence to embattle and

from their richly bevelled brick mouldings. |

Stiffkey Old Hall west front from NW [6309]
1984-07-12
Designed by Sir Nicholas Bacon, Keeper of the Great Seal
under Elizabeth I. Building began in 1576. The original
design was to have been a four-sided house enclosing a
courtyard with four towers at the external and four at
the internal corners. In the event, this proved too
costly and three wings only were built, with six towers
and a gatehouse. Of this, the west wing with three towers
survives, together with part of the north wing, the
gatehouse and two other towers which mark the internal
and external north-eastern corners. |
