Hi I want an opinion on this please http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?client=firefox-a&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&channel=s&q=&ie=UTF8&ll=52.768786,-2.166281&spn=0.00679,0.020084&t=k&z=16&om=1&output=embed&s=AARTsJoAd88xVyNfeHurFbDxbkIZTla43g"> />View Larger Map Or http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?client=firefox-a&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&channel=s&q=&ie=UTF8&ll=52.768786,-2.166281&spn=0.00679,0.020084&t=k&z=16&om=1 I think this is a little known early castle, I think built around 1070, the Mott has disappeared but the ring ditch or moat is visible. This is likely to have been developed into a manor of the type known as a moat house. I would like a second opinion the air photo is superb. Please comment if the links fail please contact me.

Hey Bob. Just browsing the <./>Info</.> page before calling it a night, and saw this. Ummm, you do realize that unless anyone else is subscribed to your Conversation list, ... they wouldn't see this? And there's not a lot of that are nosey enough to subscribe that way.

Now, if you would post that to a Journal, ... all your friends would be sure to see it.

I do find it interesting what things aerial photography and satellite views reveal. Things that may have been obvious hundreds or thousands of years ago, even to folks walking the terrain. And some things just raise more questions, like a bit of an anomaly in the geography near the Cerne Abbas giant (A16407533)
