Full description
18th century Hanby Hall lies close to a moat within which the foundations of earlier buildings have been traced. In the north east corner of the moated area are the remains of associated fishponds. {1}{2}{3}{4}
Earthwork and cropmark remains have been identified from aerial photographs adjacent to the eastern side of Welton Low Wood surrouding Hanby Hall Farm. The remains represent a moat and motte [PRN 42175] and ridge and furrow and linear ditches [PRN 42176]. {5}
Interpretation of aerial photographs was undertaken in December 2011 in order to determine the best possible location for a wind farm substation. Aerial photograph site 8 was recorded as moat, fishponds, boundaries and fields at Hanby Hall Farm [TF47680 69810]. A moat, two rectangular former fishponds, medieval ridge and furrow, boundaries and drains [see PRN 42176] are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs. {6}
