Moated Site 200m South West of Court Farm is a medieval domestic moated site located in Wales and recorded under Cadw Scheduled Ancient Monument reference MM188. The site comprises a rectangular moat which would have enclosed a residential compound typical of the medieval period, representing a form of domestic fortification that was common amongst the minor gentry and substantial landholders in Wales during the medieval era. Such moated sites served both defensive and status functions, with the water-filled ditch providing protection whilst also marking the social standing of the occupant. The preservation of this earthwork feature allows it to contribute to our understanding of medieval settlement patterns and domestic organisation in the Welsh landscape.
