Description
A map of 1607 shows a moated site at Virginia Water called "The Manor". A building with projected wings is shown within the moat. The site is mentioned as early as the reign of Richard II and in 1406 is referred to as the Manor in Windsor Park. There are now no visible remains of the Manor Lodge, although medieval tiles have been recovered both within the island and immediately outside, demonstrating the survival of the archaeological deposits <1>.
