Bottisham Place

History of Bottisham Place

Listed Building

Farmhouse of several building periods, including at the South end a range probably of C15 origins and originally open to the roof, a C16 extension to the North, enlarged in C17 by a parallel passage range, and by a two bay service wing to North. … The initials I.H. probably refer to John Hasell (d.1572) whose family probably owned the house at that time. Inside the C17 wing to the North, the roof trusses are of raised tie-beam construction.

Barn, C17. Timber framed,. weatherboarded, part of which is original. The roof and roof covering are C20. Aisled, seven bays.

Granary, service and farm buildings including a wash-house, brewhouse, stable and barn of three bays. Late C17 or early C18.
