Overview

History & significance

The site preserves the distinctive ditch system characteristic of moated homesteads, which were common amongst the medieval gentry and prosperous farming classes from the 12th century onwards. The moat would originally have enclosed a substantial domestic or residential complex, though surface features relating to structures within the moated area are no longer clearly visible.
