Hodgeston Moated Site is a medieval domestic settlement located in Pembrokeshire, Wales, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under the reference PE246. The site comprises a moated enclosure typical of medieval farmsteads, wherein a dwelling and associated buildings would have been situated within a water-filled or water-retaining ditch system, a defensive and status-conferring feature common in medieval Wales and the English border regions. Dating to the medieval period, the moat represents investment in domestic security and organisation characteristic of higher-status settlement in this era. The earthwork remains preserve evidence of medieval land use and settlement patterns in Pembrokeshire, contributing to understanding of the region's medieval rural economy and social hierarchy.
