| Abstract: |
Helions Farm, built in the mid-nineteenth century, is set within a medieval moated enclosure. Limited excavation and monitoring in advance of underpinning work to the kitchen and drainage works to the north and south of the house recovered evidence of continuous occupation within the moated enclosure from at least as early as c.1200. Improvements and alterations to the building appear to have taken place in the sixteenth and eighteenth century.
