The moated site at Grove Manor Farm is a medieval settlement earthwork located in Kent, England. The monument comprises a substantial moat, which forms a roughly rectangular enclosure typical of manorial homesteads of the medieval period. Such moated sites were widespread across south-eastern England and served as defensive and status-indicating features for minor nobility and gentry during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The earthwork survives as a significant archaeological record of domestic settlement patterns and land management practices in medieval Kent.
