Owls Castle (Moat)

Archaeological place

What is recorded here

Owls Castle (Moat) marks a buried castle ditch in Horsham, where water once held the line between inside and outside. The moat may have blocked carts, frightened invaders, or simply marked the boundary of a household that believed walls needed depth as well as height. Whatever it defended, the castle itself has thinned into soil and memory, leaving only the shape of its exclusion behind.
Owls Castle (Moat) is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Horsham. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
