Notes about this historic site

1 The probable extent of the medieval settlement at Honiley based on the OS map of 1886, 25SE.
2 The 1886 map shows very little settlement, though there does seem to be a boundary hedge on the northern side. It records the two moated sites [WA 2618 and WA 2620] and St John’s Well [WA2617]. The village is not listed in Domesday, but there was a medieval church [WA5237]. There is a possible site of shrunken settlement to the east of the church [WA2615], and the aerial photo on the mapdata shows a little ridge and furrow survival NW of St John’s Well.
