Farmstead record BDG 102 - Farmstead: Poplar Farm (Goddard's Farm)

Goddard's farm is a farmstead visible on the 1st Ed OS map and the Badingham Tithe map. Set alongside a public road the farmstead is laid out in a regular courtyard U-pla patter with additional detached elements. The farmhouse is detached and set away from the yard. Two ranges of the U-plan remain but all other working buildings and the farmhouse have been lost. A new farmhouse and modern working buidlings have been added to the side of the site.

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.
