Summary

An historical source states that in 1349 there was a double moated vicarage at Redenhall, which was divided in two by a wall to separate the vicar's portion from that of the rector appointed by Bungay nunnery. This is the nearest known moated site to Redenhall church, and there are cropmarks of a moated site with inner and outer moats, as well as a portion of what may be a second moat.
