Moated site 330m south east of Manor Farm is a medieval enclosed farmstead situated in Buckinghamshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure, a defensive water-filled ditch surrounding residential and agricultural buildings, which represents a common form of medieval settlement organisation amongst the gentry and prosperous farming classes from approximately the 12th to 16th centuries. Such moated sites served both practical purposes of water management and livestock control, and symbolic functions denoting status and property demarcation. The monument survives as an archaeological earthwork and is recorded as a scheduled ancient monument under National Heritage List entry 1017518.
