Glebe Cottage moated site is a medieval monument situated immediately south of Brook Farm in Lincolnshire. The site comprises a rectangular moated enclosure, a characteristic defensive feature of the medieval period that typically served domestic and agricultural purposes for a manorial holding or substantial farmstead. Such moated sites were particularly common in the Midlands and eastern England during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries, and their construction often reflected the status and resources of their inhabitants. The monument remains visible as earthwork features in the modern landscape, preserving evidence of medieval settlement patterns and land use in this part of Lincolnshire.
