Introduction
Delbury Hall is a large brick mansion built soon after 1752. In 1827 it had a park, occupying the area around the Hall and south-west of it, extending up to what in 1883 was Corfton Plantation. By 1883, however, the park had been done away with. Of the two ponds at Delbury, the more northerly one had been formalized by 1883.
