The Gatehouse website record for Foliejohn Manor

In the civil parish of Winkfield. In the historic county of Berkshire (Modern Authority of Bracknell Forest, 1974 county of Berkshire).

Manor reacquired for the crown by Edward III in 1359. A modest moated manor house was built here and became part of the complex of manor-houses and lodges belonging to the castle and forest of Windsor. Unlikely this was a royal residence, presumably used as lodgings for royal court. There are remains of a moat.
The moat is in very poor condition, the southern side has been completely infilled. Drainage ditches run along the bottom of the other three sides to flow through a break in the N.W. corner of the moat. The moat is overgrown and averages 0.7 in. deep from the general ground level with a retaining bank on the north side. There are no traces of any structure within the enclosed area. (PastScape)
