The moat described above, centred at TG 0729 0169, which is presumed to be of medieval date, is only partially visible on the consulted aerial photographs. It is for the most part obscured by trees and vegetation fringing the edge of the moat. As a consequence it has not been mapped by the NMP as its plan is more clearly represented on modern and historic maps. Enclosures and other features in the surrounding area, which are believed to be contemporary with the moat, have been mapped and recorded as NHER 54650. Some may relate to the ‘cropmarks’ and other features described in the notes contained in the Secondary File for NHER 8912, including (S3).
S. Tremlett (NMP), 11 August 2011.
