The group of salterns and possible moat located 250 metres east of Bramber Castle is a scheduled ancient monument in Sussex. These features are associated with medieval salt production, reflecting the exploitation of natural salt resources in the coastal marshland environment near Bramber. The salterns likely date to the medieval period when salt manufacture was an economically significant industry in this region. The presence of a possible moat suggests nearby domestic or defensive settlement activity contemporary with the use of the salt-working site.
