History of Mabbutts
Listed Building
House, formerly a farmhouse. Mid C16 with late C17 addition and alterations. … Main hearth with reddened bricks (part of an original decorative scheme), with deeply moulded re-used C15 mantel beam.
W M Palmer in his lecture of 1924, The Neighbourhood of Abington and Hildersham, talks about the building known as ‘High Buildings’ in which lived Fred and David Day. He refers to the oak over mantel and states that Mr Mabbutt used to live there, one of the largest farmers in the village.
