Moated site, associated ponds and earthworks 150m south east of Cranmore Farm is a medieval residential monument located in Gloucestershire. The site comprises a moated enclosure with associated pond systems and earthwork features typical of high-status medieval settlement, likely dating to the medieval period. The moat would have served both defensive and status-asserting functions, whilst the associated ponds suggest management of water resources for domestic and agricultural purposes. Such moated sites are characteristic of the medieval gentry and prosperous landholding class during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries.
