. The Victoria history of the county of Lancaster;. Natural history. SCALE. OF FEET O lOO ZOO 300. SECTION from A tb B. enlarged double j/ze Plan. Abram : Bamfurlong Hall ANCIENT EARTHWORKS was used to form a rampart round the ' island ' platform. The first method is seen at Bewsey in Burton wood, Bradley in Burton wood {vide plan), The Peel in Heaton Norris, Old Brynn in Ashton in Makerfield {^ide plan), Rufford i^ide plan) and Sefton ; the second at the moat in Hornby with Farleton parish (^ide plan). Homestead moats, as they are called, inclose areas ranging from one-tenth of an acre, as at RufFord (^ide plan) and Wright's Moat in Hale- wood, to one and a half acres, as at Bewsey {^ide plan), though they are occasionally more ex- tensive. They were usually supplied with water in the en- circling fosses. While some of the islands, perhaps the earlier ones, are round or oval, the great majority are either square, ob- long, or irregular angled shapes. Of the rounded form. Old Brynn [^ide plan), Arley in Blackrod, and Morley's in Astley, may be cited ; of the square, Barrow in Burtonwood, Clayton in Droylsden, Horton Castle in Lathom, The Hutt in Halewood, Hornby with Farleton i^ide plan). New Hall in Ince in Makerfield, New Hall in Tyldesley cum Shakerley, Old Bold in Bold, Rufford {vide plan) and Sefton ; of the oblong, Bewsey {yide plan) and Bamfurlong in Abram {^ide plan) ; of the irregular, Gidlow in AspuU. Most of these moats are single, but sometimes they are found double fossed, while occasionally the moat is widened out into a sort of lake with an island in the middle, as at Wardley in Worsley parish. Every now and then we find two islands side by side within the same water defence, or perhaps an annex alongside the main inclosure; the latter is seen at Bradley in Burtonwood and at Bam- furlong in Abram (^ide plans). Some moats may have originated as early as Saxon days, for a protection against robbers generally and marauding Danes in particular ; others we
