Abstract:
A moated site of 12th to 14th century has two sets of fishponds and a deerpark, and is accompanied by another small moat. The layout suggests a pleasance rather than anything more functional. The village was probably shifted northwards, perhaps at the bishop's wish, perhaps in late 13th or 14th century, and not all at once.
