Beyton House

Once the site of the moated house, a new eighteenth or early-nineteenth century house was built slightly further east leaving two arms, later just one, of the moat as ornamental canal features with a partly-walled kitchen garden on the old house site. The house and its formal gardens sat in a small park and historic field names suggest evidence for an earlier designed landscape. Beyton House later became a farmhouse and during the nineteenth century it was tenanted when the base for farm activities moved to Beyton Lodge, a property slightly to the north. On the break-up of the estate at the beginning of the twentieth century, the house once more became a farmhouse that was rebuilt after a fire. Much of the earlier parkland, a canal and partly-walled garden, now laid to grass, have survived and twentieth century owners renovated and extended its pleasure gardens.
