Iddinshall Rough seen from the north. Hidden among the trees at Iddinshall Rough is a moated site of a Saxon and medieval monastic grange that once belonged to Chester Abbey. This may also have been the site of an old Manor House demolished in the early 1800s.

Just to confuse things further, the nearby farm is called Iddenshall Grange.
