August 2004. Visit to assess damage to west side of moat.
Some 0.9m to 1.2m (3 to 4 feet) of bank has eroded away along this section. Problem probably caused by sluice exit and prolonged period of rainfall. Owner to investigate the cost of placing gabions along this edge. Grant aid under Section 17 may be possible. Fish ponds remain heavily overgrown with once entrance planked bridge disturbed.
