Moated site and fishponds south-east of St Mary's Church is a medieval monument located in Leicestershire, England. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure together with associated fishponds, features characteristic of high-status medieval settlement and land management from approximately the twelfth to sixteenth centuries. The moat would have served both defensive and drainage functions, whilst the fishponds represent investment in productive resource management typical of medieval manorial estates. Such complexes are significant archaeological indicators of settlement hierarchy and economic organisation during the medieval period.
