Wildwood Copse is a medieval moated site with an associated pillow mound located in Surrey, England. The moated enclosure represents a form of residential settlement characteristic of the medieval period, when such water-filled ditches served both defensive and status-signifying functions for the inhabitants. The adjacent pillow mound, a distinctive ridge-like earthwork, likely dates to the same period and may have served as a rabbit warren or similar productive landuse feature. Together, these monuments provide evidence of medieval land management and settlement patterns in the Surrey landscape.
