Overview

History & significance

Moated site 100m north east of Wolverton Manor is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Hampshire. The site consists of a water-filled or formerly water-filled moat forming an irregular enclosure, a characteristic feature of high-status medieval settlement in England dating from approximately the 12th to 16th centuries. Such moated sites typically enclosed a manor house and associated domestic buildings, serving both defensive and status-assertive functions for the resident nobility or gentry. The survival of the moat as an earthwork feature preserves evidence of medieval land use and settlement hierarchy in the Hampshire landscape.
