Bromfield moated grange is a medieval agricultural settlement located in Shropshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure typical of grange farmsteads established by monastic communities during the medieval period, serving as an outlying working farm for the production of surplus agricultural goods. The moat itself survives as an earthwork feature defining the perimeter of the former grange complex. Such monastic granges were characteristic of the medieval ecclesiastical economy, particularly from the twelfth century onwards, and their physical remains provide valuable evidence for understanding rural settlement patterns and monastic land management in medieval England.
