A moated site survives as earthworks at Stain Farm. The moat was scheduled on 2 July 1999, and is believed to represent the site of the medieval manor house including a building platform and possible fish pond. {1}{2}{3}{4}{5}{6}
Nearby excavations c.80m northwest of the moat have returned some evidence for medieval activity at Stain including a ditch and building remains (MLI127236, MLI127237) on the same alignment as the moat, suggesting they may be contemporary.
