Moated site and associated earthworks 270m north east of Millers Farm is a medieval defensive settlement located in Norfolk, England. The monument comprises a moated enclosure, a characteristic form of domestic fortification that became widespread amongst minor gentry and prosperous farming families during the medieval period, particularly from the 12th century onwards. The site's earthworks remain visible as a series of banks and ditches that once surrounded a residential complex, providing both status and practical protection. The associated earthworks suggest a settlement of some substance, typical of the medieval rural landscape of East Anglia where such moated sites proliferated as expressions of local power and agricultural prosperity.
