Wenham Castle (Little Wenham Hall)

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Wenham Castle, also called Little Wenham Hall, stands as a scheduled monument in Babergh, England. The formal recognition preserves the site, yet it does not promise entry or reveal whether the grounds remain private. The castle keeps its own distance, waiting for someone to approach with permission rather than assumption.
The National Heritage List for England records Wenham Castle (Little Wenham Hall) as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Wenham Castle, also known as Little Wenham Hall, was built in the late 16th century by Sir John Wenman, a prominent Essex gentleman and Member of Parliament. It is remembered as an example of late Elizabethan architecture and for its historical association with the Wenman family, who played a notable role in local and national affairs.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
