The monument consists of a water-filled or formerly water-filled ditch forming an irregular polygonal enclosure, a characteristic feature of moated homesteads that were constructed from the 12th century onwards. Such sites typically enclosed a timber or stone residence together with associated domestic and agricultural buildings, serving both defensive and status-affirming functions for their medieval occupants. The site's survival as an archaeological feature provides evidence of the pattern of rural settlement and land use in medieval Nottinghamshire.
