Moated site and ridge and furrow cultivation 230m south east of Manor Farm is a medieval monument complex located in Yorkshire, England. The site comprises a moated enclosure, characteristic of medieval manorial or defensive settlements, alongside preserved ridge and furrow field systems that evidence the medieval open-field agricultural practices of the locality. The moated element likely served as the domestic focus of a medieval holding, while the surrounding ridge and furrow cultivation represents the striped ploughing patterns created through centuries of communal agricultural management. Both components date to the medieval period and together illustrate the integrated relationship between settlement and the agrarian landscape in medieval England.
