Moat, Manor Farm, inhabited, rectangular platform, present house overlaps W side, although that part of the house looks the oldest. Low lying location on meadows close to river (S1). Manor Farm adjoins on W side outside entrance to moat.
House demolished in 1970s, apparently as part of planning consent for conversion of Manor Farm Buildings. Large elements of the original Manor Farm buildings, as shown on OS 1880s map, just outside entrance to moat and also possibly Med in origin, have also now gone.
Earthworks visible on Lidar. See associated files.
