Protected Status/Designation

Full Description

A moated earthwork and probable remains of Ingleby Deserted Medieval Village. The earthworks associated with this moat are typical of a deserted village. There is a foundation of one building, probably a church or chapel. In the parish church of Saxilby is a list of incumbents at Ingleby from Domesday until the last listed in 1416. Set up in a wall within the farmhouse is what was probably a holy water stoup, which according to a 19th century inscription was excavated from the site. {1} References to Ingleby (High and Low and North and South) and notes 18 persons and a priest. {2}{3} There was no poll tax so the desertion seems to have occurred in the 14th century. {4} There are two settlements in close proximity and with close links that have been identified (North and South). For detailed description see Everson, Taylor and Dunn. {5}{6}{7}{8} A watching brief was conducted in 1997 during works for an extension at Gables Manor (PRN 54225a - SK 8927 7788). The alignment of the north side of the moat was identified, and a series of deposits associated with its infilling was recorded. Animal bone was recovered from the fill, including a partial red deer skull with antler. A quantity of leather was also found including at least three shoes dated to the early to mid 16th century. Two sherds of residual late Saxon pottery were also recovered; one was found in a floor layer which sealed another layer with an early 13th century pottery sherd. {9}{10} A watching brief was undertaken in 2013 during the groundworks for a second extension to the care home at Gables Manor, Ingleby. The northern edge of the moat surrounding the former manor was recorded, and a small quantity of 14th to 16th century tile was recovered from the primary fill. {11}{12}
