Overview

History & significance

Moated site 300m NE of All Saints Church is a medieval defensive and domestic enclosure located in Lincolnshire. The monument consists of a moated platform typical of high and late medieval settlement patterns in eastern England, when such earthwork defences were constructed around manorial or high-status residential sites. The site's physical form comprises a water-filled or formerly water-filled ditch surrounding a raised central platform, a configuration that served both practical defensive purposes and as a status symbol for its occupants. Dating evidence places this site within the medieval period, reflecting the period of widespread moated site construction across England from the twelfth century onwards.
