  • Bigods at Walton Hall and Their Successors John
    BIGODS AT WALTON 405 BIGODS AT WALTON HALL AND THEIR SUCCESSORS byJOHNFAIRCLOUGH IN THEINSTITUTE'SPROCEEDINGSfor 2000 Steven Plunkett and I published a group of drawings including one of Walton Manor House dated 1650. We explained that this shows the seventeenth century condition of the medieval building, the ruins of which are now known as Walton Old Hall at Felixstowe. Since then detailed study of Walton Old Hall has revealed more about its history The study was part of a project funded by the Local Heritage Initiative carried out by Ipswich Archaeological Trust and Felixstowe History and Museum Society Now Walton Old Hall is represented by a small fragment of masonry in a corner of the sports ground between Colneis Road and Dellwood Avenue in Felixstowe. This is the only visible reminder of a large complex of medieval stone buildings associatedwith the Bigodswhichwasusedbrieflyin the 14thcenturyasa royalpalace. It is in an elevatedposition, higher than most of Felixstowe, and the Ordnance Survey map of 1925 shows the highest spot height in Felixstowe of 68 feet nearby on Quintons Lane. It must have had extensive long distance views across the River Deben and, at least from the upper floors, it would have been possible to look out to sea. The little that is now visible of the remains of the complex of buildings was exposed when Tom Felgate carried out a small excavation here in 1967-8'. He revealed a stretch of wall standing up to 6 feet high which formed part of a room about 30 feet wide and over 54 feet long.
