Lymm Hall moated site and ice house is a medieval monument located in Cheshire, England, comprising the remains of a moated enclosure associated with a substantial medieval or post-medieval residence. The moat itself represents a defensive and status-bearing feature characteristic of elite domestic architecture from the medieval period onwards, whilst the ice house indicates the site's occupation and development into the early modern period when such structures became common elements of gentry estates. The survival of both features together provides archaeological evidence of the settlement's longevity and the prosperity of its inhabitants across several centuries. The site remains an important record of medieval and early modern domestic settlement patterns in the region.
