Moated site 415m west of Binhamy Farm is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Cornwall. The site comprises a water-filled or water-retaining moat surrounding a raised platform or island, a characteristic defensive feature of the medieval period that served to protect a dwelling or small fortified residence. Such moated sites were particularly common throughout southern England during the 12th to 16th centuries, and their presence typically indicates settlement by a landholding family of some local standing. The earthwork survives as a scheduled monument, preserving evidence of medieval land use and domestic settlement patterns in the Cornish landscape.
