English Heritage survey of buildings at Lodge Farm carried out in 2000. Sampling of one of the trusses in the stables for dendrochronology producing a felling date of 1545-77, suggesting that there was an existing manorial farm pre-dating the 17th century house (B3).
Further dendro-dating obtains felling date of 1561-2; secondary felling dates of 1723-4 for repairs and 1784-5 for extension. See report (filed) for detail (B4).
