Goodrest Lodge is a double moated site with associated fishponds located in Warwickshire, England, designated as an ancient monument. The site comprises two distinct moated enclosures, characteristic of medieval settlement patterns, with evidence of managed water features in the form of fishponds that reflect the economic and domestic practices of the medieval period. Such moated sites typically date from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries and represent the residences of minor gentry or substantial farming families who could afford the labour and resources required for their construction and maintenance. The combination of double moating and fishponds indicates a settlement of some status and resource, serving both defensive and practical agricultural functions during the medieval era.
