The moat is the prominent remains of what was once a large home in the forest of Kingswood. An impressive mansion was built here in fifteenth century, later added to and altered before being demolished in the 1730s. A farmhouse re-used some of the stone but was itself abandoned in the 1920s, leaving just the ornamental moat. See Image] for more views.
