XXV Chelsworth Hall

Henry and Giuliana Pocklington and their son Evelyn lived here from time to time, but evidently not at the time of the survey.

(George) Henry had inherited the estate, as well as the Lordship of the Manor, from his bachelor cousin Marton upon the latter’s death in 1865, but being a serving Army officer he was not currently in residence. His younger brother Frederic was also a serving officer but was stationed about this time at Colchester and so was a frequent visitor to his home and family at The Old Manor.

The Hall was let to Lt. Col. Fenwick B. Barron of the 3^rd Dragoon Guards, and his wife Henrietta. Both originated in London and we know no more about them.

Also at the Hall - but unnamed in the survey - were five servants, including a butler, a page and a coachman, most of them from the local area, but none from Chelsworth itself.
