Baddesley Clinton Hall moated site and fishponds is a medieval monument consisting of the water-filled moat surrounding Baddesley Clinton Hall and associated fishponds located in Warwickshire, England. The moat and fishponds date from the medieval period and represent the defensive and economic infrastructure associated with what became a significant gentry residence. The moated enclosure originally served to protect and demarcate the hall's precinct, whilst the fishponds provided both food resources and aesthetic value typical of high-status medieval households. The site remains substantially preserved as an archaeological and landscape feature, reflecting the settlement patterns and land management practices of medieval Warwickshire.
