The moated site at Cippenham Court is a medieval enclosed settlement located in Buckinghamshire. The monument comprises a moat surrounding an area of former occupation, representing a form of defensive or status-driven domestic arrangement characteristic of the medieval period, particularly from the 12th century onwards. Such moated sites were widespread across southern England and typically contained the residence of a landholding family of some standing, often accompanied by associated agricultural and domestic structures. The site's survival as an earthwork provides evidence of the settlement patterns and social hierarchy of medieval Buckinghamshire.
