Owners at the time [1] told E. Rose (NLA) in 1980 that the porch on the building was meant to imitate a church porch and was dated 1866, although the date on the main house is recorded above as 1861. The moat-like feature to the southeast was said to be an 18th century landscape feature, but in fact does not appear on (S2) though it is present on (S3).
