OS 6" map (1957)

Edingham Mote. All that remains are four small low hillocks of stones (but see NX 86 SW11) apparently in an irregularly oblong position, the whole circumference of which measures c. 147', N-S diameter 42' and 45' transversely. This mote is 150' OD and not in sight of any others.

There is now no trace of the mound - destroyed by a factory.
