Abstract:		 The aim of the building recording was to provide a detailed record and assessment of the house prior to its demolition. The building recording was carried out to Level 3 (Historic England 2016) which is defined as: “Level 3 is an analytical record, and will comprise an introductory description followed by a systematic account of the building’s origins, development and use. The record will include an account of the evidence on which the analysis has been based, allowing the validity of the record to be re-examined in detail. It will also include all drawn and photographic records that may be required to illustrate the building’s appearance and structure and to support an historical analysis. The information contained in the record will for the most part have been obtained through an examination of the building itself. The documentary sources used are likely to be those which are most readily accessible, such as historic Ordnance Survey maps, trade directories and other published sources. The record may contain some discussion the building’s broader stylistic or historical context and importance. It may form part of a wider survey of a number of buildings which will aim at an overall synthesis, such as a thematic or regional publication, when the use of additional source material may be necessary as well as a broader historical and architectural discussion of the buildings as a group.” In particular the record considered the:  Plan and form of the site.  Materials and method of construction.  Date(s) of the structure.  Original function and layout.  Original and later fixtures and fittings.  Significance of the site in its immediate local context. A programme of historic building recording was carried out by Colchester Archaeological Trust of a house at Frog's Hall Farm, Bambers Green Road, Takeley, Essex in November 2019. The building described in this report has multiple ranges and ridge-lines, with an asymmetrical plan. Although much dilapidated and significantly altered in the 20th century, particularly on the interior, multiple original external features of this building (as identifiable from a 1921 photograph) show it to be an early example of an 'Arts and Crafts' style house, constructed sometime shortly before 1875.
