The Rookery
Once known as Battlesea Hall, The Rookery was home to the Catholic Fox family until 1778 when it was sold to the Henniker-Major family of Thornham Magna to became a farmhouse, as it continues to be today. The house dates back to the seventeenth century and the site includes a surviving ornamental garden canal complex constructed by the Fox family, probably during the eighteenth century. The complex includes Suffolk’s largest ornamental garden canal.
