Hawton moated site, fishpond, Civil War redoubt and ridge and furrow is a complex of medieval and early modern monuments located in Nottinghamshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure of medieval origin, which would have enclosed a high-status dwelling, alongside an associated fishpond typical of aristocratic or monastic estates. The Civil War redoubt represents a defensive earthwork constructed during the seventeenth-century English Civil War, when the Nottinghamshire landscape saw considerable military activity. The ridge and furrow earthworks indicate medieval agricultural practices, reflecting the open-field farming systems that characterized the mediaeval English countryside.
