Moated site 360m north of Joanshill Farm is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Herefordshire, England. The monument comprises a substantial moat defining an enclosed residential platform, a characteristic form of high-status settlement fortification common in the medieval period. Such moated sites were typically occupied from the twelfth century onwards, serving as the domestic seats of minor nobility or prosperous landowners who required both practical water-based defences and visual markers of social status. The site's preservation as an archaeological monument reflects its importance to understanding the pattern of medieval settlement and land use in the region.
