Cartlodge 70 Metres South West of Green Farmhouse

The cartlodge, located 70 meters south-west of Green Farmhouse, dates back to the early 17th century and has been converted into a stable in the 19th century. It features four bays and is constructed with a timber frame covered in tarred vertical clap-boarding. The upper part of one gable wall includes wattle and daub infilling, likely added in the 18th century. The roof is made of corrugated iron, which replaced the original thatch, and is half-hipped at both ends. The cartlodge has 19th-century boarded doors. Each side wall has center posts with long straight braces reaching up to the wallplates, and short braces at the corners connecting to the tie-beams. Inside, there is a complete six-bay clasped-purlin roof with long straight rafter braces rising from the corners. The collar at the half-hip is supported by arch braces from the rafters, and the space beneath may have originally been open. This building is a rare example of a complete 17th-century cartlodge in Suffolk.
