History: Lampetts Farm is listed as being Grade I of Historical Interest, a former aisled hall. The remains of both aisles survive with the original two centred doorhead in the north wall. Believed to date back to 1310, the manor house was owned by Thomas Lampett in 1385 from whom it has taken its name. In 1538 William Rochester granted the manor to Sir Richard Riche who later became the 1st Baron Riche and later Lord Chancellor. Acquiring considerable wealth from the Dissolution of the Monasteries, he later became the founder of Felsted School.
