Full Description
Group of four (?) buildings named as `The Bruehouse', marked on William Haiward's map of Shottisham, 1631 (S1). All have now gone. For pottery scatters in this general area, see Shottisham 011. The name seems to mean `the heath house' - from old French `bruiere' meaning heath.
October 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty National Mapping Programme.
There was no evidence on the aerial photographs to suggest structural elements at this location, and it is worth noting that there are structures marked on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map (S2) approximately 200m to the south, at TM 339 458 (SHER STT 024).
E. Ford (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 15th October 2015.
