What is recorded here
Situated in low lying, gently undulating, wet pasture, Anglo-Norman motte and bailey castle (WM023-013001-) 190m to SSE. Not depicted on the 1837 OS 6-inch map or the revised 1913 ed. OS 25-inch map. Monument described in 1981 as an extensive system of ridges and depressions which may represent a medieval settlement. Some on the higher and drier ground may be archaeological whilst others on the low lying ground appear to be the remains of drainage features.
