Abstract: |
Earthworks surrounding the oval moated hall had been partially re-interpreted as mostly subdivisions of a Deer Park shown on a map of 1650. An outer court existed to the east of the moat, and some slight features may well have related to buildings on that map. The only convincing earthwork associated with an earlier settlement was a well-defined hollow way to the south, with one possible toft. Enclosures to the north may in part have been tofts adjacent to a possible road, but some of these features were also Deer Park subdivisions in 1650. Examination of maps showed that a village was still in existence in 1650, being distributed on common-edge sites by the Tas and around Bates Green. The village, though apparently shifted, thus survived longer than previously thought. [Au] |
