Abstract: |
This desk based survey of land at Faize Cottages, East Rudham, suggests that the features thought to indicate a moated site of the medieval period are more likely channels of the braided stream that runs through this low common meadow. The manorial history of East Rudham also points to this conclusion, with ecclesiastical owners rather than secular, making a moated site within then village itself less likely. The medieval families connected with the priory of Coxford had lands and estates elsewhere and are unlikely to have established a manorial centre here. The site lies within a village with an important early history, however, and it is possible that evidence of Middle Saxon and other periods exists on the development site. |
