Monument Number 400115

Hob Uid: 400115
Location :
Surrey
Reigate and Banstead
Non Civil Parish
Grid Ref : TQ2220055130
Summary : Early post-conquest motte within the grounds of Walton Place.
More information : [TQ 22205513] Mound [T.I.] (1)

This is a flat-topped mound in the grounds of Walton Place [a 13th c. manor house]. It is suggested to be a tumulus or moot hill, measures 35 by 32 yards and is less than 12 feet high. There are traces of a ditch. Stone foundations have been found on the mound. To the south of it is a possible fragment of a moat, called Court Ditch. (2)

[See illustrations Card] A Norman motte. (3)

Scheduled as a Castle Mound. (4)

There would seem little doubt that this feature as described by Stebbing, is a castle mound. Court Ditch is now dry and partly rubbish filled: it is of doubtful antiquity. The 25" A.M. survey has been amended. (5)

See illustrates Card for Panoramic view. No change. (6)

Additional reference: excavated moated site. (7)
