6/67 Forecourt walls, remains of gateway
and barn immediately to the east of
26.1.67 (Remains of Gatehouse only) Keynedon Farmhouse.
GV II
Forecourt walls, remains of gateway and barn to Keynedon Farmhouse. C15, barn
probably C17. Slate stone rubble walls. The battlemented wall still shows on the
south side but on the north it has been concealed by the building of the barn
probably in the Cl7. The moulded jambs of the main gate on the East side still
survive as high as the springing and the wall to the side of it has a chamfered
plinth and moulded string. The C15 gate-tower above the arch was demolished in
the late C19. There are a number of blocked window openings in the courtyard
walls.
