Iddinshall Hall moated site is a medieval monument located in Cheshire, England, consisting of the earthwork remains of a moated enclosure. The site preserves the physical evidence of a substantial residential complex, with the moat itself forming the primary archaeological feature that survives above ground. Dating to the medieval period, the moated site represents a form of domestic settlement that was characteristic of the English countryside, particularly from the twelfth century onwards, though the precise dating of this individual example requires archaeological investigation. Such moated sites typically indicate the residence of a person of some social standing, as the construction and maintenance of a moat represented a significant investment of labour and resources.
