Full Description

Included in the scheduling of the preceptory at Eagle Hall Farm are earthworks believed to be the remains of part of the garden or small park associated with Eagle Hall. Outside the preceptory precinct to the south west is a large rectangular pond, approximately 60m by 20m, with a broad bank on each side, approximately 10m in width. On the north west side the bank is flanked by a narrow modern drainage channel which follows the course of a cobbled path. On the other side the bank is linked to the precinct area by a causeway across the moat. The pond is considered to be an ornamental feature and its banks serving as raised terraces linked to walkways and other parts of the formal garden. {1}{2}
