Moat at Hawkesley Farm site
There is little info available on the history of this site, except to say that it was designated as a Scheduled (Ancient) Monument and is loosely recorded by Historic England at https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1005909 Local sources suggest that excavations around the time the area was being developed for housing in the late 1950s found evidence of occupation from the 11th century onwards, and the moat is preserved at least as this small pool.
