Full Description
Union Farm is a farmstead visible on the 1st Ed OS map and the Blythburgh Tithe map. The farmhouse is listed and dated to the early 18th century. The farmstead is laid out in an F-plan with the farmhouse forming part of a Z-plan. The farmstead sits at the end of a private track.
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.
