Moated site 1/4 mile (400m) NE of Cockbridge is a medieval moated enclosure located in Cumberland, England. The site consists of a substantial water-filled ditch surrounding a raised platform, a characteristic defensive and status-indicating feature of medieval settlement sites in northern England. Dating to the medieval period, such moated sites typically served as the centres of minor manorial estates or the residences of local landholding families. The monument survives as an earthwork and represents an important archaeological record of medieval rural settlement patterns and landscape organisation in the region.
