Moated site 200m west of St James' Church is a medieval defensive enclosure located in Gloucestershire. The monument comprises a water-filled or formerly water-filled ditch forming an island platform, a characteristic feature of high-status domestic sites from the medieval period. Such moated sites typically date from the twelfth to sixteenth centuries and served to protect and demarcate the residences of landowners of modest to considerable means. The presence of this moat in proximity to the parish church suggests a site of local importance within the medieval settlement hierarchy.
