Blicking Hall windows reinstated
Blicking Hall in Norfolk is a mansion near Aylsham that was built in the seventeenth century. In 1820, its great hall was enlarged and at this time twelve sixteenth- and seventeenth-century windows, including panels from Steinfeld Abbey, were bought from John Christopher Hampp, the leading importer of and dealer in stained glass at the time. It is now owned by the National Trust. As as part of its two-year programme to restore the great hall, some of its important windows have now been cleaned and reinstated. |
