Moated site 1/2 mile (800m) SW of Moat Farm is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Suffolk. The site consists of a moat, a water-filled ditch that once surrounded a residential enclosure, typical of the manorial settlements constructed during the medieval period in East Anglia. Moated sites of this type were commonly established from the 12th century onwards and served to protect and define the property of minor nobility or substantial landholders. The earthwork remains visible as an archaeological feature in the Suffolk landscape, representing an important surviving example of medieval settlement patterns in the region.
