NHER 31035 (Monument record) - Undated rectangular enclosure

1995.
East of moat (NHER 5148) is a lower, ditched enclosure with irregular northern boundary. East side has north to south bank, inside enclosure, with another ditch to west, which links at southern end to the outer ditch. Possibly related to moat, but could be separate enclosure. Bank is possible ditched causeway, but very degraded and truncated.
Pottery:
Two medieval unglazed body sherds.
Identified by A. Rogerson (NLA).

1995. Earthwork Survey.
Survey at 1:1000.
Area to the east with some features that are probably associated with the moat. Described as Tofts Kennel Covert in old documents.
See report (S1) for plan and further details. This site was included in (S2) and the survey is also noted in (S3).

Suggestion from A. Rogerson (NLA) in (S1) that name Old Kennel may derive from 'coney' indicating rabbit keeping. Note however kennel was also an old term for a drain.
