Frickley Old Hall moated site is a medieval moated enclosure located in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a substantial rectangular moat which once surrounded a residential or manorial dwelling, representing a form of high-status settlement characteristic of the medieval period. Moated sites of this type were commonly constructed from the twelfth century onwards, serving both defensive and status-conferring functions for their occupants. The survival of the earthwork at Frickley demonstrates the persistence of medieval landscape features in the modern topography of Yorkshire.
