Bradley Hall moated site is a scheduled ancient monument located in Cheshire, England, consisting of the earthwork remains of a medieval moated enclosure. The site represents a form of domestic settlement typical of the medieval period, when such moated sites served as defensive and status-bearing residences for landholding families. The moat itself, now evident as an archaeological feature in the landscape, would originally have enclosed a timber or stone structure, with the water-filled ditch providing both practical and symbolic protection. The site's survival as an identifiable earthwork makes it a significant example of medieval settlement archaeology in the region.
