Hall Close is a moated manorial complex situated in Lincolnshire, England, representing a form of settlement organisation characteristic of the medieval period. The site comprises a substantial moat enclosing the residential and domestic precinct of a manor house, a layout typical of high-status landholdings in the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The earthwork survives as a visible archaeological feature, preserving evidence of medieval manorial settlement patterns in the English landscape. Such moated sites are particularly numerous in the Midlands and eastern England, where they reflect the distribution of medieval lordship and the domestic arrangements of the feudal classes.
