Gannock Grove moated site and hollow-way is a medieval monument located in Hertfordshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure, characteristic of medieval manorial settlements of the 12th to 16th centuries, alongside an associated hollow-way that testifies to historical patterns of land use and communication routes. The moated element represents a form of domestic fortification and water management common amongst the gentry and substantial landholders of medieval England. The hollow-way, formed through prolonged use as a tracked routeway, demonstrates the cumulative impact of traffic across the landscape during the medieval and early post-medieval periods.
