Earlshaw Hall moat is a medieval earthwork monument located in Nottinghamshire. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure that served as the defensive and residential focus of a medieval settlement, dating to the medieval period. The moat itself, which survives as a distinctive ditch surrounding the former hall platform, represents a common form of domestic fortification employed by landholding families during the medieval era. The monument reflects the agricultural and social organisation of medieval Nottinghamshire, providing archaeological evidence of settlement patterns and domestic architecture in the region during this period.
