Beaulieu Hall moated site is a medieval moated settlement located in Northamptonshire, England. The monument comprises the earthwork remains of a substantial moat surrounding an island platform, representing a form of defensive domestic architecture characteristic of the medieval period, particularly from the twelfth to fifteenth centuries. Such moated sites were typically occupied by substantial landholders and served both practical and status-signalling functions within the medieval landscape. The site's survival as earthwork remains provides evidence of medieval settlement patterns and the organisation of rural aristocratic residences in the Midlands.
