Possible earthwork building platforms of potential medieval date are visible on digital images derived from Lidar data captured between 2005 and 2010, at Braddons Farmhouse. The earthwork platforms are fairly subtlety defined but appear visible as an upper levelled area to the east, with a possible cutting which forms part of a lower terraced area to the west. The area of landscaping occupies approximately 0.17 hectares and was likely associated with the range of buildings depicted on the parish tithe map of approximately 1838-48, but which have been completely removed by the time of the First Edition Ordnance Survey map of between the 1880’s-90’s.
