Moated site, Barsey Farm, Shudy Camps

History of Barsey Farm

Scheduled Monument

Barsey Farm is thought to be named after William of Berardsay who owned land in Shudy Camps in 1279. In the 14th century the estate was in the ownership of the Gatesbury family and, when Richard Braughing sold the manor in 1534, it was known as Berarsheys.
