Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Between February and November 2011, AS Ltd conducted monitoring and recording during building investigation works at the Pond House, Bugby's Farm, Great Munden, Hertfordshire (TL 3475 2392). An initial appraisal of the building was undertaken in January 2010 but due to the extent of modern refurbishment, limited historic fabric was visible at the time. The later works opened much of the timber-frame to detailed investigation and provided much further evidence. Technical analysis suggests that the cross-wing, which survives in the best condition, was probably an independent, main range and bears the close studding and typical roof form of the early 16th century. Rare surviving pigments suggest a contemporary decorative scheme of green and red for the principal room. The kitchen was probably built at about the same date, perhaps as a separate structure. Structurally, this used poorer quality timber, which has not fared as well. Later, the two were linked by the construction of a conventional hall range with chimney stack, perhaps in the later 16th or early 17th century, though a detailed understanding of this area is hindered by the total replacement of the roof in modern times. Apart from those mentioned above, all pre-19th century decorative features appear to have been replaced leaving the existing interiors of little historic interest.
