Farmstead record WLG 030 - Farmstead: Manor Farm

Manor Farm is a farmstead visible on the 1st Ed Os map. The farmstead is laid out in a loose courtyard plan with the farmhouse detached and set away from the yard. The farmstead sits alongside a public road in an isolated location. This farmstead survives intact with additional modern sheds on site. (S2-5)

Two 19th C timber-framed barns, one of which was used as a threshing barn and the other to house animals. This barn sits on a brick and flint plinth and has 6 bays. There was also once a cart lodge present at this site, however it was demolished during the 1970's (S1).

Recorded as part of the Farmsteads in the Suffolk Countryside Project. This is a purely desk-based study and no site visits were undertaken. These records are not intended to be a definitive assessment of these buildings. Dating reflects their presence at a point in time on historic maps and there is potential for earlier origins to buildings and farmsteads. This project highlights a potential need for a more in depth field study of farmstead to gather more specific age data.
