Hall Place is a medieval moated site located in Wiltshire, England. The monument comprises a substantial rectangular moat surrounding the former residential platform, indicative of a manorial holding of medieval date. Such moated sites were characteristic defensive and status-bearing settlements of the 12th to 16th centuries, serving to demarcate property boundaries and provide practical protection whilst also demonstrating the social standing of their occupants. The survival of the moat and associated earthworks provides evidence of medieval settlement patterns and land use in the region.
