Evidence: Ufford Hall takes its name from its owner at the time of Edward I, Robert de Ufford, father of Robert de Ufford, 1st Earl of Suffolk (1298–1369). It was subsequently acquired by Henry de Sancroft and remained with the Sancroft family until the eighteenth century. Perhaps its most notable owner was Dr. William Sancroft, the 79th Archbishop of Canterbury, who was born there in 1617.
