Heveningham Hall is a Grade I listed building in Heveningham, Suffolk. The present house, dating from 1778–80 and incorporating work from an early 18th-century building, was designed by Sir Robert Taylor for Sir Gerald Vanneck, 2nd Baronet. The interiors of circa 1781-4 were designed by James Wyatt. The dining room was restored after a fire in 1949 and the east wing, containing the library and drawing room, was gutted by fire in June 1984.The hall and grounds were bought in 1994 by Foxtons-founder Jon Hunt and his wife for use as a family home. Since the 1990s the Hunts have carried out extensive work to restore the building and return the grounds to the original Capability Brown designs, working with the noted English landscape architect Kim WilkieThe hall hosts an annual motorsport and classic car event, the Heveningham Hall Concours d'Elegance.
