Do you mean Apethorpe, Northamptonshire? I can't find 'Adepthorpe' listed in England.

It was probably a lodge for Apethorpe Hall

There is a Blue Field Farm on the O.S. Map North East of Apethorpe Village.

If you go to http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/getamap/ click "I want to Get-a-Map now" and enter Apethorpe in search, you will see Blue Field Farm.

Blue Field Lodge was on North Street in 1881 which does not appear on the modern map.

Judging by Google Street View the buildings appear to be original so you can get an idea what Blue Field Lodge would have looked like.
