Notes about this historic site

1 When the house [Clopton] was put up for sale again in 1873 the sales particulars (SBTRO ER 6/122/8) listerd details of the house and also the Gardens and Pleasure Grounds ‘which occupy nearly seven achres’. The pleasure grounds include ‘Ornamental and Rustic Arbours and Fountains, large Fish Pool and the far-famed St Margarets Well’
Archaeological observation of drainage works within the gounds of Clopton unearted a three-sided building which was suggested to be one of the aforementioned Abours.
