Melton Hall
Built at the end of the eighteenth century, Melton Hall is near the site of an earlier manor house that is believed to have been built by Richard Wood, son of the Earl of Halifax. It lies close to the market town of Woodbridge beside the historic main road between London and Yarmouth. The Wood family went on to have a successful solicitor’s practice into the twentieth century. The house stands in a small area of pleasure gardens dotted with nineteenth century trees and the site includes a late-eighteenth or early-nineteenth century walled garden with crinkle-crankle dividing walls, lawns with wildlife meadows and woods managed in collaboration with Suffolk Wildlife Trust.
