Moated site and associated earthworks 270m north east of Millers Farm is a medieval defensive and residential complex located in Norfolk, England. The site comprises a substantial moat enclosing an area of habitation, together with surrounding earthwork features that reflect the agricultural and manorial economy of the medieval period. Such moated sites were characteristic of the medieval English countryside, typically serving as the fortified homes of minor landholding families from the 12th century onwards, and this example contributes to the archaeological evidence for settlement patterns and social hierarchy in medieval Norfolk. The earthworks remain visible as earthen banks and ditches defining the former extent of the moated enclosure and its associated features.
