Farmstead record FMP 046 - Outfarm: Candlemas Barn

Candlemas Barn is an outfarm visible on the 1st Ed Os map. The outfarm sits alongside a private track in a village location. The outfarm is laid out in a regular full plan. There has been a partial loss of working buildings with the remaining converted for residential use. (S1-4)

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.
