Moat NW of village is a medieval earthwork monument located in Suffolk, England, and is recorded on the National Heritage List for England under entry 1006017. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure, a defensive or status-bearing feature typical of medieval landholding and settlement patterns in East Anglia. Such moats, which became widespread from the twelfth century onwards, served both practical and symbolic functions, protecting domestic or agricultural compounds whilst demonstrating the occupier's social standing. The earthwork survives as a clearly defined ground feature and remains an important witness to medieval settlement archaeology and tenurial organisation in the region.
