Dudmaston Hall is a 17th-century country house in the care of the National Trust in the Severn Valley, Shropshire, England. Parliament and was one of the few royalists not to recover his money at the Restoration in 1660. Sir Thomas's eldest son, Francis (1627–89), the second baronet, was declared a lunatic. It was his fifth son, John Wolryche, who took over the estate in 1668. He began building a new house at Quatt, now the dower house, but died in 1685, before work was finished. John's son, Sir Thomas Wolryche (1672–1701) inherited his uncle's baronetcy and his father's determination to rebuild. However, he embarked on a much more ambitious project, replacing the old manor house with a new sandstone building, the core of the present Dudmaston Hall. The architect appears to have been Francis Smith of Warwick, who provided a substantial, well-built, but not grand residence. Modelled on Belton House in Lincolnshire, it has an H-plan lay-out, a large central entrance hall, backed by a saloon, and flanked by three-roomed wings. Construction probably began before 1700, but Thomas died in 1701 before it was complete. Management of the estate passed to Sir Thomas's widow, Elizabeth Weld. However, their son, Sir John Wolryche (1691–1723), the fourth baronet, came to maturity in 1712 and took over the reins. For a decade he spent heavily on gambling, horses and hunting. In 1723, attempting to ford the Severn after attending races at Chelmarsh, directly opposite Dudmaston, he drowned, leaving no male heir. The estate was burdened by heavy debts and was passed to Sir John's sister, Mary, only on payment of £14,000. She, her mother Elizabeth, and her uncle, Colonel Thomas Weld, resided at Dudmaston, and over the next half century, largely restored it to a sound financial footing by frugal management.

Seggy pool is the smallest of the three lakes on the Dudmaston estate at around 5 acres, with depths from just a few inches to around 4ft and heavily wooded around its banks.

The reservoir was created to supplement the Elan Valley pipeline, which brings wonderful Welsh water all the way to Birmingham to supply our customers. Before the reservoir was built the land belonged to part of Eymore Farm, and so was mainly agricultural in use.  The construction on the reservoir started in 1964 and was completed in 1968. The top reservoir provides water to the Elan Valley Aqueduct which in turn supplies water to Birmingham, Mamble and Tenbury. The reservoir has no natural feed, and so the water is pumped from the nearby River Severn. This is then spread over the collecting pool, and piped to the waterworks to be treated and filtered. The reservoirs’ perimeter is 29 acres and it is approximately 3ft deep. This increases to 40ft by the valve tower. Trimpley is ideal for bird watching. During autumn and spring, gulls, waders and terns pause here on migration. Other birds you might see throughout the year are kingfishers and grey herons. Eymore Wood also shelters a variety of birdlife, including pheasants, cuckoos and woodpeckers.
