Knight's Green moated site is a medieval earthwork monument located in Gloucestershire. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure, a characteristic defensive or high-status residential feature of the medieval period, typically dating from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. Moated sites of this type served both practical and symbolic functions, providing water-based protection and demonstrating the status of their occupants. The earthwork survives as an important archaeological record of medieval settlement and landholding patterns in the region, contributing to understanding of the social hierarchy and land use of medieval Gloucestershire.
