Bockenden Grange is a medieval moated site located in Warwickshire, England. The monument comprises a substantial rectangular moat that formerly enclosed a manorial dwelling and its associated domestic ranges, typical of the moated grange complexes established by monastic or ecclesiastical institutions during the medieval period. The site's morphology and archaeological evidence suggest occupation from at least the thirteenth century onwards, with the moat representing a significant investment in both status and water management characteristic of medieval agricultural estates. The site remains visible as an earthwork monument, preserving important evidence of medieval settlement hierarchy and the organisation of monastic or seigneurial landholdings in the region.
