Moated site 450m west of Parkhall Farm is a medieval defensive and domestic enclosure located in Worcestershire. The monument comprises a substantial water-filled or water-logged ditch forming an irregular enclosure, typical of moated sites that served as fortified farmsteads or manorial centres during the medieval period. Such sites were particularly common in the English Midlands from the twelfth century onwards, providing both practical water supply and symbolic assertion of status and authority. The site's survival as an identifiable earthwork demonstrates the enduring archaeological value of these relatively modest yet strategically important medieval settlements.
