Moat in Fountain Dale
Marked on the map as an 'antiquity' it is thought to have been built in Saxon times to protect a shrine. It is said that the relics and treasures of the shrine were hidden by a monk when the Danes were raiding the area, and were never found, possibly because the monk who hid them was killed.
