Manorial earthworks and fishponds in Rise Park is a scheduled ancient monument comprising the physical remains of medieval manorial settlement and associated water management features located near the village of Rise in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The site includes the motte known as Mote Hill and the site of Black Hall, along with a series of fishponds that survive as earthwork features in the landscape. These remains date primarily to the medieval period and represent the infrastructure of a manorial holding, with the motte likely representing the defensive or status element of a Norman or post-Conquest manorial centre. The fishponds, characteristic of medieval and later manorial establishments, testify to the importance of fish as a food resource and the engineering sophistication employed in medieval estate management.
