Hyde Lea moated site and fishpond is a medieval monument located in Staffordshire, England. The site comprises the earthwork remains of a moated enclosure, characteristic of the residential compounds constructed by lesser nobility and gentry during the medieval period, alongside associated fishpond features that would have served both practical and aesthetic functions. The moated layout and fishpond evidence indicate occupation and management during the high and later medieval periods, reflecting patterns of settlement and land use typical of rural Staffordshire in this era. The survival of these earthworks provides archaeological evidence of medieval domestic and agricultural organisation in the region.
