Description
The walls on the south side of the moat in front of the Manor and Church of All Saints are Grade II listed structures, likely dating from the 13th or 14th century. They are built of rubble stone, with some sections rebuilt and topped with saddle back stone coping. A semi-circular bastion is located to the northeast of the church, featuring arrowloops on its outer face, while the inner side facing the churchyard has a 2-light mullioned window. These walls probably served as the defenses for the manor house that existed on this site before the rebuilding by Thomas Tropnell between 1465 and 1480. It is also possible that the walls were converted into a summer house during the post-Medieval period. The footings of a second bastion can still be seen to the west.
