The moated site 80m west of Cedars Farm is a medieval enclosed settlement situated in Buckinghamshire. The monument consists of a substantial moat, a characteristic defensive or status-bearing earthwork feature of the medieval period, which enclosed the residential and domestic precinct of a manorial holding. Such moated sites are particularly common in southern England and typically date from the 12th to 16th centuries, representing the established settlements of minor gentry or substantial farmers. The survival of the moat as an earthwork provides evidence of medieval land use and social hierarchy in the English countryside.
