Moated site 400m north-east of Hooker's Gate is a medieval defensive and residential earthwork located in Wiltshire. The monument consists of a water-filled or formerly water-filled moat enclosing a raised platform, a characteristic form of high-status settlement dating to the medieval period, typically between the 11th and 16th centuries. Such moated sites served both as symbols of rank and practical defensive features for the dwellings and outbuildings of substantial landowners. The site represents an important example of medieval settlement hierarchy and land management in the region.
