Moated site 60m west of Edlaston Hall is a medieval residential complex situated in Derbyshire. The monument comprises a substantial moat which once surrounded a domestic settlement, a defensive or status feature typical of the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The site represents an important example of medieval settlement archaeology in the region, with the moat forming the principal surviving structural evidence of occupation and social organisation during the medieval period. Such moated sites are characteristic of manorial centres and indicate the presence of a dwelling of some standing, though the specific historical associations of this particular location remain incompletely documented in available historical sources.
