Full Description

Church Farm is a historic farmstead located to the north of the settlement of Marks Tey. It was first shown on the 1874-1887 Epoch 1 map to be a large interlinked site, forming one defined courtyard. From the original farmstead over 75% of the buildings survive, including what is believed to be the farmhouse. However, as none of the buildings are listed it is difficult to tell. This is most likely due to the extensions added to some of the original buildings. There are some modern buildings on site, including what is believed to be a double garage to the north of the site. Of the four historic landscape features shown on the Epoch 1 map, only on farm pond to the northwest of the site survives. <1>
