The moated site located 230 metres and 110 metres north of All Saints Church in Norfolk is a medieval defensive earthwork. The monument comprises a substantial water-filled or partially water-filled moat forming an enclosure typical of the high medieval period, likely dating to the twelfth or thirteenth century. Such moated sites served as farmsteads or minor manorial centres, combining practical drainage with modest fortification. The survival of the moat structure in the landscape provides evidence for patterns of settlement and land use in medieval Norfolk.
