Chepstow Park Wood Moated Site is a post-medieval moated enclosure located near Chepstow in Monmouthshire, Wales. The site comprises a substantial earthwork consisting of a water-filled or water-retaining ditch that formerly enclosed a residential or manorial precinct, characteristic of medieval and post-medieval settlement patterns in the Welsh borderlands. The moated form suggests occupation during the medieval period with possible continuity into the early modern era, though the site's precise dating and functional history require further archaeological investigation. As a scheduled ancient monument, the site represents an important example of the fortified domestic and landscape arrangements that characterised elite residences in this region during the later medieval and post-medieval periods.
