Boys Hall Moat

Boys Hall moat is a Scheduled Ancient Monument dating from the 13th century. The area consists of a moated island that would have been the site of a dwelling in the past. Mature trees are present on the island that form roost sites for common bird species. The topography of the ground is complex, suggesting extensive earthworks have taken place in the past. The site essentially has an open character although there are areas of scrub. There is a pathway linking the pedestrian bridge from Boys Hall to edge of the Orbital Business Park.
