Moated site 60m north-east of Little Onn Hall is a medieval defensive settlement located in Staffordshire, comprising an earthwork moat that once surrounded a residential enclosure. The monument dates to the medieval period, when such moated homesteads were constructed by minor gentry and substantial farming families as a practical means of protection and status demonstration. The site preserves archaeological evidence of occupation within the moated enclosure, though the superstructure buildings have not survived above ground. As a scheduled ancient monument, it remains an important record of medieval settlement patterns and domestic fortification practices in the English Midlands.
