Moated site 100m south-west of Bear Place is a medieval moated enclosure located in Berkshire, England. The monument consists of the earthwork remains of a moat, representing a form of defensive domestic architecture characteristic of the medieval period, particularly common among lesser nobility and gentry between the 12th and 16th centuries. Such moated sites typically enclosed residential buildings and served both practical and status-conscious functions, providing protection and denoting landholding authority. The survival of the earthwork as a scheduled monument indicates its archaeological value for understanding medieval settlement patterns and domestic organisation in the region.
