Location : Essex Uttlesford White Roothing
Grid Ref : TL5536913418
Summary : Colville Hall - Early 16th century hall rebuilt in Tudor timber-framed style. H-plan, altered in the 16th and 17th centuries, restored in the mid-20th century. Contemporary gateway and stables. Ponds were thought by the owner in 1951 to represent a moat, but being at different levels this is highly improbable.

According to the owner, Mr Webster, the ponds at TL 554 133, TL 554 134 and TL 553 135 represent the remains of a moat, but this is highly improbable as the ponds occur at different levels.
