The farmer reported a substantial amount of brick and rubble in this area during ploughing. This site appears to be an artificial platform and the hedge to the north is based upon a stone foundation and indicate the location of the seventeenth century hall. However, it is a little distant from the folly, so the hall may have stood elsewhere (see CHER 1837/1/0).
