Monument Number 190144

Hob Uid: 190144
Location :
Somerset
South Somerset
Wambrook
Grid Ref : ST2940007060
Summary : Supposed earthwork
More information : ST 29400706. An enclosure in sloping pastureland,
faintly visible on the ground and on an A.P. Its north side, a
hedgerow, was removed in the 19th century. It is possibly
the castle inferred by the name Castle Wood. (1)

No enclosure is visible in the pasture field. A drainage ditch
parallels the western boundary of the field. The ground is
uneven and of a poor nature. The combination of the ditch
and the general ground condition might have led to the supposition
of an earthwork here. (2)
