NGR to centre of village.
Half a mile south-west of East Claydon is the village of Botolph Claydon, with Botolph House, a substantial brick and stone manor-house, the residence of Mrs. Verney, at its east end. Botyl Well, commonly corrupted into St. Botolph's Well, is reached by steps at its south-west end. In this village are a number of small 17th-century timber-framed houses, mostly with red brick chimney-stacks, the most interesting one being at Bernwood Farm. It has closely set upright timbers, and is probably not later than about 1600; a wing was added in the 18th century. Claydon Mill appears to have stood in Botolph Claydon (B2).
