Bredfield House
With earlier origins and later eighteenth century alterations and additions, much of Bredfield House was demolished in 1950 leaving only the rear service wing that was enlarged to create Fitzgerald Cottage, a separate garden house that became the present Bredfield House and stable block, also converted to a residential property. Two original walled gardens are now the outside space for the latter two properties. Separated from the small surviving park by a ha-ha, the site includes remains of an eighteenth century garden including ornamental canal with walkway and mount. During the early part of the nineteenth century it was home to Edward Fitzgerald who went on to find fame as the translator of the ‘Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam’.
