Moated site and fishpond at Old Rectory Farm is a medieval settlement feature located in Buckinghamshire. The moat, which comprises a substantial water-filled ditch surrounding the former residential platform, represents a defensive and status-conscious form of domestic enclosure typical of the medieval period. The associated fishpond demonstrates the economic and dietary practices of a medieval household of some standing, as such features were valuable resources for both food production and estate management. The site preserves evidence of medieval domestic occupation and organisation within its earthwork remains.
