Great Thurlow is a small village built around a crossroads, with the River Stour running through the middle of it. Its listed buildings carry plain tile, slate, thatch and 20th century pantile, and two of the timber-framed buildings, 112a and 113a Bury Road and the Rose and Crown, have panelled pargetting. Barns and outbuildings are covered as well as houses, from a slipped tile or a blocked gutter to a full recover. On older buildings we aim to put back like for like. On barns and outbuildings we can price both a repair to the worst section and a full recover, so you can weigh one against the other.
Great Thurlow is just over 3 miles north of Haverhill, with its sister village Little Thurlow immediately to the north. The B1061 passes through Little Thurlow. The Great and Little Thurlow conservation area was designated in August 1973. All Saints church is listed Grade II*, as is the village smock mill. Collis Mill was moved here from Slough in 1807. Lady Harland paid for an iron bridge to be built across the ford. We also cover Little Thurlow, Sowley Green and Little Bradley.
Great Thurlow Hall, listed Grade II*, is an 18th century house faced in stucco under slate, and its barn is an 18th century weatherboarded building with a tiled roof, half hipped at the west end. The barns at Church Farm are thatched, as are Church Farm Cottages. Red House and a range of estate farm cottages carry pantiles laid in the 20th century, and No 157 Sowley Green was thatched before being tiled.
