Location :
Leeds

Summary : Manor house and moat (site) alleged castle
More information : [SE 2994 3340] Leeds Manor House is said to have occupied
the site of Scarborough's Hotel in Bishopgate St. near the west end
of Boar Lane. The site of a moat was found in excavations for the
late Commercial Buildings in 1828 and this is traditionally the
site of a castle (1), but this is a confusion for Leeds Castle in
Kent. There was no castle at Leeds, Yorks (2). (1-2)

The Scarbrough Hotel is situated at SE 2998033320 and the commercial
buildings (now the Royal Exchange) at SE 2996033420. No further
information was obtained. (3)
