Farmstead record RLG 020 - Farmstead: Redlingfield Hall

Redlingfield Hall, Redlingfield. 19th century farmstead and manor farmhouse. Regular courtyard multi-yard plan formed by working agricultural buildings with additional detached elements. The farmhouse is set away from the yard. Significant loss (over 50%) of the traditional farm buildings. Located within a church and manor farm group. The barn originally dates from the 14th century when it was part of the Benedictine nunnery but it's original use is uncertain and it is not recorded in the listing information when it's use changed to a barn (S1-6).

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.
