Belgrave moated site and medieval garden is a scheduled ancient monument located in Cheshire, England, comprising the earthwork remains of a medieval residential moat and associated garden features. The moat encloses an area that once contained a substantial dwelling, likely of 13th to 15th-century date, representing a form of elite domestic settlement common in the medieval period. The survival of garden earthworks in association with the moated enclosure provides evidence of the organised horticultural practices and landscape management that characterised medieval manorial properties. The site remains visible as raised banks and ditches in the landscape and contributes to understanding of medieval settlement patterns and domestic organisation in the Cheshire region.
