Finborough Hall

Finborough Hall is aGrade II listed[1] stucco-faced Tuscan-style country house inGreat Finborough,Suffolk, England.

The grounds were originally purchased byRoger Pettiward[2][3] fromColonel William Wollaston MP. Roger Pettiward rebuilt Finborough Hall in 1795 to a design byFrancis Sandys[1] ofBury St Edmunds, who had also worked atIckworth House.[4]

Finborough Hall, due to its association with thePettiward family, subsequently gave its name toFinborough Road inLondon, developed as part of thePettiward Estate in north-west Chelsea, London SW10, still owned by the Pettiward family. This led to the name ofFinborough Theatre. The Hall's original c1700 staircase was moved toRougham Hall in 1878.
