Moated site is a medieval earthwork monument located in Warwickshire, England, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under the National Heritage List for England. The site comprises a substantial water-filled or formerly water-filled moat surrounding a central platform, a defensive feature typical of medieval manorial settlements and high-status residences. Dating to the medieval period, such moated sites represent significant evidence of settlement hierarchy and defensive practices among the gentry and minor nobility during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The earthwork's preservation provides archaeological insight into medieval domestic arrangements and the spatial organisation of medieval estates in the English Midlands.
