Description

Preston St Mary, Preston Manor, Lavenham Road (PSM 001, TL 9277 5072) monitoring of ground works for a new greenhouse revealed deposits of a recent depth to the full depth of 800mm in the foundation trenches apparently confirming that the site is located on the line of the now filled-in western arm of the moat. Examination of a shallow soil strip for an associated path recorded the probable inner edge of this arm of the moat just to the west of a recently constructed extension to the house.
