An area of Heveningham Hall has been cordoned off while officers deal with the crash site, and the air accident investigation branch of Suffolk Police has been informed.
The crash comes just two days before the Heveningham Concourse, an annual motor car and aeroplane show that takes place as part of the Heveningham Hall Country Fair.
Ten fire appliances were sent.
