Moated site 1/4 mile (400m) NE of Cockbridge is a medieval moated homestead located in Cumberland, England. The monument consists of a substantial rectangular moat surrounding a residential platform, typical of high-status domestic sites established during the medieval period. Such moated enclosures were commonly constructed from the twelfth century onwards, serving as defensive and status-defining features for manorial or significant landholding households. The site's survival as an earthwork demonstrates the scale of medieval settlement organisation in the Cumberland region and the investment in protective and demarcating boundaries around important residences.
