Abstract:		 Abbey Farm adjoins open countryside on the northern edge of the hamlet of Cross Street and occupies site of a Benedictine priory founded here in the 13th century. The farmhouse is a fine timber-framed structure of the late-16th century that is listed at grade II* and much of the area is a Scheduled Ancient Monument. A 13th century substantial flint boundary wall to the west of the house appears to have formed part of large service building depicted on an estate map of 1757, when the property was a tenanted farm of 207 acres on the Hoxne Hall estate. In 1757 four detached buildings formed a probable medieval service courtyard; this is omitted from the Scheduled area and is now occupied by a complex of mid-19th century farm buildings. Part of an early timber frame can be seen in a converted office to the south of the farm entrance and an unusual late-16th century structure of four bays adjoins the 19th century cattle yard. This building appears to have been an Elizabethan stable with two hay lofts. It is reputed to retain a queen-post roof which was inaccessible at the time of inspection. The 19th century farm buildings of red brick with pantiled roofs are late examples of their type, dating from circa 1870, and were also extensively altered during a recent partial conversion. Much of their historic interest was been lost as a result, but the complex may preserve archaeological evidence beneath its concrete floors.
