Bradley Hall is a moated site with associated fishponds and connecting channels located in Lancashire, England. The monument dates from the medieval period and represents the domestic and economic infrastructure of a substantial medieval settlement, with the moat providing both defensive and water management functions typical of high-status medieval residences. The fishponds and their connecting channels indicate a deliberate landscaping of the site to support fish farming, a significant resource for medieval households of considerable standing. The surviving earthworks preserve evidence of the settlement's layout and the importance of water management in medieval estate organisation.
