Finedon Hall, Finedon
A spirited front, a "Gothic-cum-Tudor fantasy of William Mackworth-Dolben. Dates 1835, 1851, 1856, 1859 and 1872." It is rendered much more attractive than it would otherwise be by the use of the gorgeous ironstone found in Northamptonshire and environs. Grade II listed.
It appears to have been converted into flats.

Hall Chapel
This interesting little gem is tucked away in a corner. It makes good use of the local Northamptonshire ironstone and has an interesting roof tile pattern. The Great Tower with its attached circular tower staircase can be seen in the background.

The upper rooms are reached by a spiral staircase within the circular tower attached to the north face. On the west face is the Welsh motto which reads: GWELL ANGAU NA CYWILYDD – Better Death Than Shame.

Finedon Hall
A substantial residence has probably existed here for a thousand years. The main structure is Elizabethan and is attributed to Thomas Mulso who was Lord of the Manor from 1562 to 1608. The considerably embellished exterior that you see today was done in the 1800’s by William Mackworth-Dolben.

Finedon Church
Beneath the window is the Dolben family crypt (the two plaques provide information) which contain the remains of many members of the Dolben and Mackworth Dolben families who lived at Finedon Hall. The Dolbens were originally from North Wales where they had large estates. The family had many ecclesiastical members which included David Dolben Bishop of St Asaph in Flintshire (1631) and John Dolben Archbishop of York (1638).
