Walls And 2 Bridges To Moat At Peel Hall

The walls and two bridges to the moat at Peel Hall are made of coursed sandstone and date from the 18th century or earlier. The moat is fully walled on both the inner and outer sides. A culvert bridge, likely built at the same time as the walls, is located on the southwest side of the moat. Its northwest face features sandstone with a brick arch-ring, while the southeast face has a lower section made of 18th century or earlier brick and an upper section of sandstone. There is also an altered 19th century bridge on the southeast side of the moat, which has ornate pinnacled cast-iron posts that may have been added during the rebuilding of the Hall around 1840.
