The Ancient House
The Ipswich Society is pleased to offer
this book, first published in 1985 by
Ipswich Borough Council. This is the only
publication that we know of which covers
the story of the building, its historical
importance and the account of the major
works carried out by the Borough on this
famous Grade I Listed building which began
in 1984. The Ancient House is now in a larger
format (A4) and has a new four-page
introduction. It is packed with information,
diagrams and photographs.
44 pages plus covers, full colour throughout.
‘The Ancient House is very special; it is almost unique amongst England's 300,000 listed buildings. It displays not only the finest array of decorative plaster in the whole of East Anglia, but it is probably amongst the finest in Europe. Residents and visitors to the town are drawn to the building and fascinated by its history.’
