Full Description
Orchard Farm, Exning. 19th century farmstead. Loose courtyard four sided plan formed by working agricultural buildings. The farmhouse is detached facing gable on to the yard. The farmbuildings are extant. Located within an village location (S1-5).
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.
