Moated site 90m south of Bendyshe Farm is a medieval moated homestead located in Cambridgeshire. The site comprises a rectangular moat surrounding a central platform, a characteristic defensive and drainage feature of medieval rural settlement dating to the 12th–16th centuries. Such moated sites were commonly constructed by minor landholders and gentry throughout medieval England to protect their dwellings and demesne lands. The earthwork survives as a significant archaeological monument documenting the pattern of dispersed settlement and land management in the medieval Cambridgeshire landscape.
