Hob Uid: 80415
Location :
North Lincolnshire
South Killingholme
Grid Ref : TA1481016560
Summary : Site of manorial earthworks and a moat?, no longer extant; Roman coins and pottery have also been recovered from this area.
More information : [Area centred: TA 14811656] Moat [G.T.] (1)

Traces of extensive foundations of a deep moat or other
defensive earthwork in the field known locally as Blow Field are
probably Norman if not earlier.
Stukeley(a) refers to a great castle at Killingholme [this may,
however, be TA 11 NW 8]; and occasionally Roman coins and
pottery are found in the parish. (2)

An extensive manorial work resurveyed at 1/2500.
There are no surface indications of a castle or major building,
and there is no local knowledge of any archaeological finds.
The name 'Blow Field' could not be confirmed. (3)

These earthworks no longer extant. (4)
