Description
TL 66 SE MOULTON BROOKSIDE
5/59 The Priory
II
House. Formerly rectory; 1846, with fragmentary mediaeval core, and C16 wing to rear. 2 storeys, irregular plan. Gault brick with string at 1st floor. Hipped slated roof with axial chimneys of gault brick. Windows with flat arches of gault brick and small-pane sashes. Panelled entrance door on the north side with moulded cornice on console brackets. The rear wing is timber- framed and rendered, with some roll and ogee moulded 1st floor members visible; re-roofed and altered 1846. The C19 work is on the site of a wing built of masonry, in which was found the fine C15 laver or piscina now reset in the C19 walling of the entrance hall. From this it was then assumed that the building had been a chapel. Some of the walling is said to be incorporated in the present building. For description of the building prior to 1846, see "Notes about Moulton", Newmarket Journal, 6.8.1904 (Suffolk Records Office).
