The medieval manorial complex west of St Mary's Church in Buckinghamshire is a scheduled ancient monument comprising a twin moated site with associated fishpond and earthworks dating to the medieval period. The dual moat system represents a significant settlement pattern typical of medieval manorial organisation, with the fishpond serving both practical and status functions within the estate's economy. The earthworks preserve evidence of the spatial organisation and land management practices characteristic of a substantial medieval manor, positioned some 750 metres west of the parish church. Such complexes demonstrate the integration of defensive, residential, agricultural and leisure facilities that defined the hierarchical use of medieval aristocratic or gentry estates.
