Bennington Grange moated site is a medieval moated homestead located in Lincolnshire, England. The monument consists of a substantial rectangular moat that encloses an area of former domestic occupation, characteristic of the moated grange form of settlement that developed in the English Midlands and East Anglia during the medieval period. The site represents a significant example of medieval agricultural and residential organisation, typical of monastic or manorial outlying farms that required defensive or status-defining water features. The moated enclosure remains visible as earthwork features, preserving evidence of settlement patterns and land use practices from the medieval period.
