Abstract:		 Herefordshire Archaeology were commissioned by the National Trust in order to address the problem of erosion along parts of the embankment surrounding the moat at Lower Brockhampton. Remedial action was required to prevent damage to the Listed Buildings and further collapse of grounds bordering the moat.The site also had inadequate information regarding the structures formerly in place to contain the moat, and a general lack of data concerning the origins, early character and developed form of the moat. The specific requirements of the brief were to establish the character, layout and phasing of the moat using early mapped, existing archival, and archaeological field data; to pull together existing information and outline recent understanding of the form and history of the moat; and to identify problem areas and make suggestions regarding the on-going management of erosion. In particular, a concern was expressed to determine how the size and layout of the moat changed over time; to identify phases of construction and infilling; to ascertain to what extent the moat was revetted with stone, and if so to establish when this revetment work was put in place; and to determine how significantly erosion has contributed to its current shape. The scope of the project that the brief specified comprised desk-based appraisal, visual inspection within the moat (following the lowering of the water-level), and where necessary detailed annotation of an existing topographical plan.
