The Limes Farmhouse

Presented by Margaret Craddock

Burton Latimer - Limes

The Limes circa 1944

This farmhouse was located in Meeting Lane. The original farmhouse in 1740 became known as “The Manse”. It was occupied by John Yeomans who owned the fields at the end of Meeting Lane. In 1896 a new Manse was erected costing £400. “The Limes” was, at one time, the home of the Clark family. The property has been renovated and has been owned by a number of families latterly.
