It is part of the Anchorage Road conservation area.[2] The property was designed and built in 1680 as a mansion house by William Wilson, builder, architect and student of Sir Christopher Wren, as a home for his new wife, a wealthy local widow Jane Pudsey[3] who had previously owned Langley Hall with her first husband. The original gatehouse or lodge, itself a Grade II listed building, and stone bridge remain but no traces of the 'moat' remain. The moat survived until 1860, until which it had to be crossed by a small stone bridge.[4] A sundial is attached to the side of the building.[5] The property is occupied by the adjacent Sutton Coldfield College.[6] References1. ^{{Images of England|num=216596|desc=Moat House|accessdate=2 September 2007}} {{Birmingham Buildings}}{{WestMidlands-struct-stub}}2. ^Birmingham.gov.uk: Anchorage Road Conservation Area map 3. ^Public Sculpture of Warwickshire, Coventry and Solihull, George Thomas Noszlopy, 2003, Liverpool University Press ({{ISBN|0853238472}}) 4. ^The Royal Town of Sutton Coldfield - A Commemorative History, Douglas V.
