Full Description

A lodge built between the parishes of Hockham and Shropham. (S1) The lodge is marked on the 6 inch 1st edition map (1879-1886). A chimney piece is inscribed with the date 1805 which could indicate date the house was built. It has been suggested that the barn appears to be of an earlier date and it is possible that there may have been a building in this location before 1805. On an 1806 map the lodge is called Limmers Lodge.
