Full description
Cressy Hall, Gosberton was a manor house rebuilt by Sir Henry Heron (d.1695); it was burnt down in 1792 and again rebuilt. The name derives from the Cressy family, one of whom established a market and fair here in the time of Edward I. Marrat {4} refers to a chapel with the date 1309 inscribed on the door.{1}{2}{3}{4} At TF22263049, in west wall of greenhouse, is stone inscribed:- 'this chapel was built 1308 and repaired 1666'. The old brick, now plastered over is believed to be the original west wall of the chapel.{1}, HTM 3.5M
