ID:SDV11929
Title:SS60NW2
Originator:Ordnance Survey Archaeology Division
Date:1971 - 1977
Summary:A large mound with an outer ditch which survives only around the north. The flat top has probably been landscaped. There is an 18C folly in the centre, & a high mound of earth at the north end. It is uncertain whether this represents the original height or whether it is dumping. If the former, the considerable amount of earth removed could have been used to level the garden immediately to the south of Winkleigh Court, where there is a terrace which does not seem to represent the perimeter of the motte and bailey. The ringwork is substantial, and like a castle site.
