Moated site 200m north of Lucas Farm, Corse Lawn is a medieval defensive earthwork situated in Worcestershire. The site comprises a substantial water-filled or water-retaining moat surrounding a raised platform or island, a characteristic defensive arrangement of the medieval period. Such moated sites are typically dated to between the twelfth and sixteenth centuries and often served as the fortified centres of manorial settlements or the residences of minor landholding families. The earthwork survives as an upstanding monument and represents an important example of the modest fortified architecture that characterised rural medieval England.
