Introduction
Wootton Lodge dates to around 1600, and was perhaps designed by Robert Smythson. The landscape was extensively altered by the Bamfords (the family owning JCB earthmoving equipment). There is a new hall south of Wootton Lodge with massive earth moving between this and the Lodge. The landscape created by the Bamfords includes a helicopter landing pad, lake, extensive lawns with statuary, planting and trees, all immaculately kept.
