TA2737 : Ringbrough

taken 18 years ago, near to Garton, East Riding of Yorkshire, England

Ringbrough
Ringbrough
A manor house was recorded at Ringbrough in 1351-2 and again as Ringbrough Hall in the 16th century. The former manor of Ringbrough has been almost totally swept away by the North Sea and now consists of a farm (the farmhouse was rebuilt in the 18th century) and the crumbling remains of cast concrete munitions trackways and ancillary buildings belonging to Ringbrough Coastal Artillery Battery, which was built between 1941 and 1942. An excellent aerial shot showing what remained of the Battery in January 2000 can be found on the English Heritage website. LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link )
