There are large earthworks in the stream valley NE of Manor House, Normanton (have been thought to be Warby). A mound on the S side of the stream (burh or fort ?) In the field SW of this mound are a number of low banks sectioned by Houldsworth in 1954. (1)
The earthworks consist of a pond bay (extending across a stream valley, well constucted and of sharp profile, shrub covered) and adjacent field banks of an unknown period of construction but probably P Med. The mound etc consist of a natural tump created by a stream diversion, and similar field banks. No feature associable with a former settlement was noted. (2)
