Full Description
{1} An avenue which may have provided a vista across from the Court to Manor Farm. This broad avenue is planted in a well defined depression cut into the slope. Whilst the north-western tree line is planted on the slope of the depression, the south-eastern tree arm is in a shallow planting ditch. Within the depression are two parallel slight raised earthwork banks which may represent a carriageway.
