More information : (SK 67362932) Moat. (1) A homestead moat. (2) The moated area carries a central depression, and not an earth platform as would be expected. Excavations appear to be in progress on the northern edge of the central reservation. (3) Contrary to the interpretation of the APs the central platform has no depression. The excavation was carried out by farm workers with a mechanical digger and apparently substantial brick foundations were encountered. However surface debris contains no traces of brick, only undressed boulders tile and slate. See 25" annotated survey. (4) No change. (5) SK 674293. Moat, south of Kinoulton village. (6)
A small-scale excavation in 1970 revealed low wall footings and an area of pitched stone, along with some late medieval pottery. Aerial photography shows surrounding ridge and furrow and other minor features. (7)
