Moated site 300m NE of All Saints Church is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Lincolnshire. The site comprises a substantial water-filled or formerly water-filled moat forming an irregular enclosure, typical of the moated homesteads constructed by the medieval gentry and substantial landholders from the twelfth century onwards. Such moated sites served both defensive and status functions, providing a practical means of protection for residences and associated buildings whilst demonstrating the occupant's social standing. The monument represents an important example of medieval settlement archaeology and domestic fortification in the East Midlands region.
