The Medieval fishpond complex and associated features at North Kelsey Grange is a scheduled ancient monument comprising a system of interconnected ponds and water management infrastructure dating to the medieval period. Located in Lincolnshire, the complex represents the remains of aquacultural provision typical of substantial medieval estates, where artificial ponds were engineered to produce freshwater fish as a valuable protein source for the manor house and its community. The site retains evidence of the earthworks constructed to create and maintain these ponds, including banks, channels, and drainage features that demonstrate the considerable investment required for such agricultural enterprises during the medieval period.
