Margaret's Camp, with some recent flooding still in the ditches to mark the old moat. Pity the old mattress dumped in it detracts from a small but interesting historic site. It is not really known what Margaret's Camp was for or who created it. Certainly, Margaret of Anjou stayed near here before the Battle of Tewkesbury in 1471, but the earthworks are of older date.
