Full Description

Manorial site since C13th. Old Manor House, originally moated according to Copinger (S1) though note no sign of a moat appears to survive - a moat does actually survive further N (see HRF 013).
Recorded as 'Hall' by Hodskinson in 1783 (S2); as 'Old Hall' by OS in 1837 (S3); as Herringfleet Hall by OS in 1880s and as Manor House Farm by OS now (LB grade II). Also part of farm complex including Listed wall and barn. Listing details not checked.
Note: Herringfleet Hall was relocated (at end of C18th?) to new site within Park at TM480991 (also a LB) - see (S3).
HER mapping includes area to SE of Manor House Farm which is labelled as 'Moat' on 1880s OS map (though now labelled as pond and certainly enclosing too small an area for a house).
