History
Somerleyton Hall is a country house and 5,000-acre (2,000 ha) estate near Somerleyton in Suffolk, England. The hall is Grade II* listed on the National Heritage List for England, and its landscaped park and formal gardens are Grade II* listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. The property is owned and occupied by Hugh Crossley, 4th Baron Somerleyton, and the formal gardens cover 12 acres (4.9 ha).
