Farmstead record LXD 107 - Farmstead: Boats Hall

Boats Hall, Laxfield. 19th century farmstead with 16th century listed manor farmhouse. Loose courtyard three sided plan formed by working agricultural buildings. The farmhouse is set away from the yard. Only the farmhouse survives with total loss of traditional buildings. Located within an isolated position (S1-6).

Recorded as part of the Farmsteads in the Suffolk Countryside Project. This is a purely desk-based study and no site visits were undertaken. These records are not intended to be a definitive assessment of these buildings. Dating reflects their presence at a point in time on historic maps and there is potential for earlier origins to buildings and farmsteads. This project highlights a potential need for a more in depth field study of farmstead to gather more specific age data.
