Full Description

Walnut-tree Farm is a farmstead visible on the 1st Ed OS map. The farmstead is laid out in a loose courtyard plan and sits alongside a private track in an isolated location. There are large modern sheds to the side with the historic buildings remaining in agricultural use.

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.
