Beeston Hall School

Beeston Regis Hall was once one of the family homes of the Wyndham Ketton-Cremers on the Beeston Regis Estate, part of the much larger Felbrigg Estate, the family seat.

The Hall, which had been damaged by a German bomb in 1940, was leased to Mr Thomas Tapping and his wife Bessie, who opened the private Beeston Hall School in 1948. In 1967 the school became an Incorporated Trust and in 1970, following the death of Robert Wyndham Ketton-Cremer, the last Squire of Felbrigg, the school acquired the freehold and approximately 14 acres of land. The school has an excellent reputation and attracts pupils from throughout Norfolk and beyond.

Over the the years the school has prospered and expanded and is the biggest employer in the Parish and has in the past occupied a seat on the Parish Council. It has also acquired other surrounding land including Beeston Hall Common, which it purchased from the Parish of Beeston Regis.
