Crick Moated Site is a medieval moated enclosure located in Wales, designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument under the reference MM051. The site comprises a substantial rectangular moat surrounding domestic structures, a settlement form that became characteristic of wealthy landholders in medieval Wales and the border regions during the later medieval period. The moat itself served both defensive and status-signifying functions, protecting the residence whilst demonstrating the occupant's authority and resources. The site represents an important example of medieval domestic settlement archaeology in Wales, providing evidence of social hierarchy and settlement patterns during the medieval period.
