Chiswick Hall moated site is a medieval monument located in Essex, England, consisting of the earthwork remains of a moated enclosure. The site dates to the medieval period and represents a form of domestic settlement characteristic of the 12th to 16th centuries, when moated sites were a common feature of the English landscape, particularly in regions such as Essex where they are especially numerous. The surviving earthworks preserve evidence of the defensive or prestige function of the moat, along with the platform upon which domestic structures once stood. As a scheduled ancient monument, the site contributes to understanding medieval settlement patterns and the domestic arrangements of medieval landholding communities in Essex.
