Full Description

Park of Urchal. Two ruined buildings are shown on Roy's map, but no dyke, and also on the 1869/70 OS map which positions and orientates them with the presently existing dyke in a manner that seems to fit possible footings on site. Hard to establish their position due to grass growth and field clearance stones.
See assoc. docs. File for SMR No. NH74SW0062.
