Description

NRHE data transfer: The remains of an earlier settlement are associated with a remarkably well preserved Tudor manor complex. To the north is a mill pond and a series of leats serving a mill site now covered by trees. East of the hall is a continuation of the moat and in a paddock low earthworks of possible earlier house-platforms. South of the Tudor gateway are further DMV (deserted medieval village) remains and two probable fish-ponds. The whole area is scheduled except for the buildings recorded as Colville Hall. <1> Colville Hall, Tudor and Medieval remains, White Roding. Scheduled 213. <2>
