Sodington Hall, Mamble
Sodington Hall, Mamble
Taken from the South East - just outside the square. This house was built in the 19th Century, replacing an earlier one which was the home of the Blount family from the 14th century to the time of the Victoria County History (1924).
Sodington, in the parish of Mamble, belonged to the Blounts,
but their mansion was burnt in the civil wars because they
refused to make arms at their forge for the Parliamentary
army. The house was moated, and had four drawbridges.(from Noake's guide to Worcestershire 1868.)
