IN 1338 THERE WAS A LARGE HOUSE, DOVECOTE AND GARDEN ON THE SITE. AFTER THE DISSOLUTION OF THE PRECEPTORY IN 1540 THE HOUSE WAS FIRST REOCCUPIED BY THOMAS SMYTH AND THEN SOLD TO THE PELHAM FAMILY WHO MUST HAVE RECONSTRUCTED IT AND LET IT TO A VARIETY OF TENANTS UNTIL ITS ABANDONMENT IN THE C17 CENTURY. THE REMAINS FROM THE MEDIEVAL AND POST MEDIEVAL PERIODS ARE PARTLY OVERLAIN BY THE GARDENS AND FARMBUILDINGS OF A SECOND HOUSE, TO THE NORTH EAST, CALLED LIMBER HOUSE, BUILT BEFORE 1812 AND DESTROYED IN THE MID C20. THE AREA OF THE PRESENT FARMYARD AND THE SITE OF LIMBER HOUSE ARE TOTALLY EXCLUDED FROM THE SCHEDULING. AL MODERN STANDING BUILDINGS, MODERN PAVING, FENCES AND GATES ARE ALSO EXCLUDED FROM THE SCHEDULING ALTHOUGH THE GROUND BENEATH THEM IS INCLUDED. THERE IS A FULL DESCRIPTION IN THE REVISED SCHEDULING DOCUMENT 22688. {1} NOTHING IS MARKED ON MAPS OF 1676 AND 1770. BY 1812 LIMBER HOUSE, AND FARMSTEAD HAD BEEN ERECTED, ITS YARD LAID ASKEW ACROSS THE CORNER OF THE MAIN ENCLOSURE. THIS HOUSE WAS DEMOLISHED AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WAR, THOUGH THE FARM BUILDINGS REMAIN. {2}, HTM 40 M
