Abstract: |
Yew Tree Farm occupies a moated site in open countryside approximately 1 km west of Laxfield village centre, adjoining the road to Stradbroke on the south-west. The grade II-listed farmhouse is a high-status timber-framed structure of the 16th century with moulded ceilings and twin cross-wings, now clad in 19th century red brick. The moat appears to have been truncated, and probably extended onto the site of the house and farm buildings, but is shown in its present form on the tithe map of 1840. At this date the farm was a relatively substantial tenanted holding of 169 acres, of which 77% was arable. |
