Fermyn Woods Hall, Northamptonshire (Explored) by Baz Richardson Northamptonshire used to be known as “The county of Spires and Squires” after the large number of old stone churches with spires and the number of large country estates, of which Fermyn Woods Hall in the north of the county is one. It is where the Brigstock International Horse Trials used to be held. Fermyn Woods Hall is a delightful country house and was probably originally a hunting lodge in the Rockingham Forest. It dates from the early/mid 17th century and originally designed on the Elizabethan “E” plan. It was extended in the 18th and 19th centuries, but the Victorian west wing was demolished in the 20th Century. The house is Grade II*-listed.
