BARMBY MOOR MANOR

Identity: confirmed — The TNA/MDR record F237850 is explicitly titled Barmby Moor Manor, and the associated East Riding archive records identify the same manor under the variant forms Barmby on the Moor and Barmby upon the Moor. The documented Manor House at Hall Spout is in Barmby Moor parish and is described as the moated manor-house site at the centre of the village.
Representative point: 53.93059, -0.81688
Basis: documented_manor_house — The Grade II* listed Manor House at Hall Spout, Barmby Moor, National Grid Reference SE 77779 48919, is the documented historic manor house and moated manor-house site. The WGS84 coordinate is converted from that grid reference and rounded to reflect site-level rather than survey-level precision.
Point confidence: high
Boundary status: representative_point_only
Boundary period:
Boundary confidence: none
Boundary basis: The available online evidence confirms the manor house and the existence of a manor court, but does not provide a documented or reconstructable perimeter for the historical manorial land. The 1783 Barmby Moor enclosure award and map concern enclosure in the parish/common and cannot safely be treated as the boundary of Barmby Moor Manor. Likewise, the parish extent cannot be substituted for the manorial extent.

Warnings / uncertainty:
- The representative point is suitable for locating the manor house/site, not for implying the full historical extent of the manor.
- No reliable source located online supplies a manor-specific polygon or enough explicit parcel-and-boundary evidence to reconstruct one without inventing an extent.
