 The Howes  – An eighteenth-century timber-framed house extended and turned into two cottages in the nineteenth century, with sympathetic twentieth century extensions at the east end. The roof is thatched and now has three sloping roofed dormers and a central chimney stack. Images of England
 Trees Farmhouse – An early-mid sixteenth timber-framed and plastered house, with later additions to the north elevations, forming an L-shaped plan. The house was re-roofed, probably in the eighteenth century at a lower pitch and pantiled, with 2 gabled dormers on the front. There is a central square chimney stack. The interior has exposed timber-framing, ceiling beams and joists. Trees Farmhouse was purchased and restored by Derek Moore of Walsham le Willows in 1972, the farmhouse is located immediately north of Lawshall Green. Images of England

The Drake family lived at Thorne Court, Shimpling and they worshipped at All Saints Church, Lawshall. The family would drive along the private road from Thorne Court to Lawshall Green. Charles Frederick Tyrwitt Drake died on 23 June 1878 and was buried in Jerusalem. In his memory the family commissioned the digging of Drake's Well and the provision of a handsome cover to be placed over the well. It remains an impressive feature as one enters Lawshall from the A134. St Edmund Way
The St Edmund Way is a long distance footpath that extends from Sudbury to Bury St Edmunds and connects the Stour Valley Path with the Lark Valley Path. The St Edmund Way passes through Long Melford and Lavenham before reaching Lawshall Green where it progresses northward to Stanningfield and Little Whelnetham and then onwards to Bury St Edmunds. The total length of the route is 13 miles and Lawshall Green represents the half-way point. References
