Callow Hall moated site is a medieval monument located in Derbyshire, England. The site comprises a moated enclosure, a form of defensive or prestigious residential settlement that was common amongst minor gentry and substantial farmers during the medieval period. Moated sites of this type typically date from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries, with many constructed during the later medieval period. The moat itself would have served both practical and symbolic purposes, providing a water-filled boundary around the hall or farmstead whilst also demonstrating the status and security concerns of its occupants.
