Full Description

{1} The surviving earthworks are slight and have been disturbed by a temporary hospital erected during WWII, and by the straightening of the Irchester to Rushden road in 1967, which removed the hollow way shown as a through-road on the map of 1769. South of the present road is a series of disturbed earthworks, most of which are the remains of houses and gardens already abandoned before the C18th.
