Rushbrooke Hall was a "stately home" in Rushbrooke. Originally named after the local landowning Rushbrooke family, between 1230 and 1703 the manor and estate was held by the Jermyn family. The older manor was largely demolished and remodeled in the mid-16th century by Sir Thomas Jermyn, to be replaced by a red brick, two-storey building in the Tudor style. It was demolished in 1961.
