A new book coming soon: Wingfield College and the Dukes of Suffolk, based on the 1362 Wingfield History Symposium... In 2012 Wingfield College and church celebrated their 650th anniversary. Now a book is being published, to record the academic symposium, and to cover the latest research into Wingfield, the de la Poles, and chantry colleges. It will include digital reconstructions of the college and Wingfield castle. Click HERE for more details about the book, and HERE for information about last year's symposium.

The house
has uneven brick floors, wide medieval floorboards, original doors, open
fires, exposed beams and brickwork, wonky walls and ceilings and
original plaster. The large medieval Great Hall has mullion windows, an oriel window, a pamment floor and a huge tie-beam and queen post. Other medieval, Tudor and Georgian interiors include a library with large Victorian bookcases and fire surround, and an early Georgian panelled room with the original paintwork and Georgian furniture and pictures. ![]() The kitchen is ideal for photo-shoots, with a vintage four oven Aga exposed brick walls, a big old refectory table, Tudor beams, and windows looking out onto the picturesque walled courtyard. All the main rooms in the house are large; the Great Hall is 7.15 x 6.75 meters. Upstairs some bedrooms have Tudor or mediaeval floorboards, and old plaster and studwork walls. The windows look out onto the gardens or the surrounding fields, and there are no modern features in view.
The large Georgian bathroom will soon have a
spectacular eighteenth century tin bath, with high sides and rolltop; and
other period bathroom fittings. To find out more, and to request a CD of images
of many of the rooms to be sent to your office, please email
