Description
At Habberley Hall (PRN 13303) there is a possible site of a castle <1a>
The medieval manor house, recorded at Habberley in 1380, would presumably have occupied the site of Habbeley Hall, for the low mound on which the house stands is likely to be a castle site, probably a ringwork. <2>
Evaluated for MPP in 1990-1, Medium score as one of 20 Ringworks. <3>
