Hodge Lane Manor is a moated site situated in Staffordshire, comprising a substantial rectangular moat enclosing the manorial residence, together with associated fishponds and surrounding closes. The monument dates from the medieval period, with evidence suggesting occupation and development from at least the 13th century onwards. The moat and ancillary water features represent a characteristic arrangement for a medieval manor of middling status, designed both for defence and for the management of resources such as fish for consumption. The surviving earthworks demonstrate the layout and extent of a functioning medieval agricultural and residential complex.
