The Medieval moated grange 160m south east of The Grange is a fortified agricultural complex dating to the medieval period, located in Yorkshire. The site comprises a substantial moat enclosing an area of approximately 0.5 hectares, which once surrounded domestic and working buildings associated with monastic or manorial agricultural operations. Moated granges of this type served as defended storage and processing centres for grain and other produce, reflecting the significant value of agricultural resources in the medieval economy and the need to protect them against theft or disruption. The surviving earthwork forms a coherent rectangular moat that preserves evidence of the layout and scale of this rural medieval settlement.
