Now known as Sakurada Moat, it was called Benkei Moat in Nouet's day and that name goes back to the time of Hiroshige who also made a picture of this place in 1856 which was included in his series One Hundred Famous Views of Edo. The change in the architecture between Nouet's version and Hiroshige's is striking, however the landscape remains mostly unchanged.
