Full Description
Moated site at Thurlby, in Bigby parish. {1}{2}
The present house probably stands on the site of an earlier medieval house, which stood within the homestead moat. During a watching brief a ditch was identified which may have been part of the moat complex. It was filled in during the eighteenth century and a pit was dug on its line. Post medieval finds include pottery, glass and bone. {3}
