Manor Holt moated site is a medieval enclosed settlement located in Nottinghamshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure, a characteristic defensive and status-bearing feature of medieval manorial settlements, typical of the period from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The moat survives as an earthwork feature, demarcating the former domestic and agricultural core of the manor. Such moated sites represent important evidence for the distribution and organisation of medieval settlement and land use in the East Midlands.
