Now renovated and residential, after many years of semi-dereliction.

It was formerly an open plan free house set in 2 acres of grounds.

The date of its closure is unknown, but must have been between 1997 (when it was listed as open in a Suffolk Camra guide) and 2007 (when it was found semi derelict). Several unsuccessful applications to convert it to residential use between March 2005 and January 2007 were refused, before a successful one was lodged in February 2009. So it could have closed as early as 2004/2005.

Owner/operator: free
