Hob Uid: 319342
Location :
Leicestershire
Melton
Frisby on the Wreake
Grid Ref : SK6955017600
Summary : Earthwork (site of) prob manor house.
More information : (SK 6955 1760):
There are remains of manorial embankments in Hall Orchard.
Three quadrangular divisions, surrounded by moats, with banks upon
the crests; also an ancient fishpond. (1)

There are slight traces of a moat and banks, but it is difficult
to trace any definite shape to these, owing to numerous
undulations, probably due to past ploughing. There are no remains
of an ancient fishpond. (2)

Slight evidence is visible on AP. (3)

Earthworks on RAF AP's seem to be shrinkage, however Hall
Orchard has now been developed as a housing estate. (4)
