Godwin's Place moated site and ponds is a medieval settlement remains located in Suffolk, England. The site comprises a moated enclosure with associated pond features, typical of medieval manorial or high-status domestic occupation from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The moat itself represents a common form of medieval settlement defence and status symbol among the gentry and minor nobility of the period. The survival of both the moat and pond earthworks provides archaeological evidence of the medieval landscape organisation and water management practices characteristic of rural East Anglia.
