Abstract:		 Reports on the discovery of a twelfth-century stockaded farmstead without obvious excavated parallels. At that time it is likely that the Perceton lands were run by a steward resident in the farmstead, in the name of the absentee landowner. In the early fourteenth century the land became the principal residence of a member of the Stewart family. The old stockade was removed and a moat excavated, probably around a new manor house. In the late 1400s following a period of absorption in larger estates the site again became a principal residence. This resulted in the building of a new mansion, mainly lying to the south of the excavated area. This was demolished in the 1720s, when another new owner constructed the present Perceton House. On a general note it is suggested that this type of site may be common, but rarely visible except as a cropmark, which without excavation may be mistakenly classified as prehistoric. Includes
