What is recorded here

The Bridge in Inchmore leads towards the castle enclosure through a walled passage some forty metres long. Bringing unwelcome news that way must have felt like walking down a throat and hoping the owner was vegetarian.

Crossing the River Nore, c. 40m E of a castle (KK009-002001-); house (KK009-002002-) and bawn (KK009-002003-). A walled passage connected the bridge and the main gateway in the E wall of the bawn.
