Moated site is a medieval fortified settlement located in Warwickshire, England. The site consists of a substantial water-filled moat forming a defensive perimeter around a residential or manorial enclosure, a characteristic feature of medieval domestic fortification from the 12th century onwards. Such moated sites were common among the gentry and lesser nobility throughout England during the medieval period, serving both defensive and status-defining functions. The surviving earthwork remains provide evidence of settlement patterns and social organization in medieval Warwickshire.
