Summary. A programme of historic building recording was carried out by Colchester Archaeological Trust of a house at Frogs Hall Farm, Bambers Green Road, Takeley, Essex in November 2019.

The building described in this report has multiple ranges and ridge-lines, with an asymmetrical plan. Although much dilapidated and significantly altered in the 20th century, particularly on the interior, multiple original external features of this building (as identifiable from a 1921 photograph) show it to be an early example of an ‘Arts and Crafts’ style house, constructed sometime shortly before 1875.
