House & Family History: The Ogilvie family purchased Sizewell in 1859. Before the end of the century, Margaret Ogilvie had developed the Estate to more than 6,000 acres and enlarged the House, renaming it Sizewell Hall. The House burned to the ground in 1920 and was rebuilt and used as a family home until the army occupied it during World War II. Sizewell Hall later served as a boarding school; it opened as a Christian conference and camping center in 1974.

Garden & Outbuildings: The House today sits in 32 acres of grounds.
