Shuckburgh Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shuckburgh Hall is a privately owned country house mansion at Lower Shuckburgh, near Daventry, Warwickshire.
The estate has been the home of the Shuckburgh family since the 12th century. The house, which has Grade II* listed building status, is not generally open to the public.
The house has its origins in the 14th and 15th centuries but has been much altered and extended over many years. The main front, designed by Henry Edward Kendall in an Italianate style, was built onto the old house in 1844.
