The moated site and fishponds located 225 metres north of Wiverton Hall is a scheduled ancient monument of medieval date situated in Nottinghamshire. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure accompanied by associated fishponds, earthworks characteristic of high medieval settlement and resource management in the region. Such moated sites typically indicate the presence of a manor house or fortified residence of considerable status, with the water-filled ditches serving defensive, practical, and symbolic purposes. The fishponds represent the medieval preoccupation with managing freshwater resources for food production, a feature commonly found in conjunction with manorial complexes of the twelfth to sixteenth centuries.
