Haceby moated site is a medieval moated enclosure located in the parish of Haceby in Lincolnshire. The site comprises a substantial rectangular moat surrounding an inner platform, a form of domestic fortification characteristic of the medieval period, particularly common in the twelfth to fifteenth centuries. Such moated sites typically served as the residences of minor gentry or substantial farmers, providing both defensive capability and status within the settlement hierarchy. The monument survives as an earthwork monument and remains a significant archaeological record of medieval settlement patterns and social organisation in the East Midlands.
