The house dates from the 17th century and was once the parish pest house used to house those with infectious diseases away from the main area of settlement. Was called Pest House on Lindfield's 1845 tithe map, Pesthouse Farm on the 1875 OS map, Cripland Court Farm on the 1910 edition and just Criplands from the 1960s onwards. Its former isolation is about to end with a new development on fields to the east, see Image
