Abstract:		 Lake Farm lies 0.5 km west of Rougham Green. The farmhouse is timber-framed and thatched and is reported to date from the mid-17th century. The property was shown on the 1813 enclosure map with a barn on the same site as the present timber-framed and weatherboarded structure of five bays, but its outline differs significantly and the surviving fabric probably represents a rebuilding of circa 1820. Much of the framing, which incorporates arch-braced tie-beams flanking the central threshing bay in the medieval tradition, may have been re-used from its predecessor, including dressed stone of probable medieval origin. The barn retains its original southern door jambs together with a rear lean-to designed to extend the length of the threshing floor, and is typical of the many built in Suffolk during/immediately after the Napoleonic wars. However, key elements of the structure have been lost and it no longer meets the criteria for listing: the original roof was replaced in the mid-20th century and much of the eastern gable was removed. The external cladding and entrance doors also date from 20th century refurbishment, although some good 19th century boarding survives within the rear lean-to and two of the four arch-braces remain intact. A building adjoining the barn's western gable may have been a contemporary stable and granary but was entirely rebuilt in recent years, while the former shelter-shed attached to its southern elevation is a mid-19th century addition which has been converted into loose boxes and also re-roofed.
