The western moat is wooded. Ordnance Survey card notes between the moats a small mound with remains of a rectangular building; this is not visible on aerial photographs.
The chapel was founded before 1387 and was a free chapel for the manor of the Harsick family (Bryant and (S1)); the Ordnance Survey card suggests the remains are this chapel.
