Moated site at Earl's Court is a medieval settlement feature located in Worcestershire. The site comprises a moat, a water-filled defensive or status-indicating ditch that formerly surrounded a residential enclosure, typical of the medieval period when such features were constructed by landowners of modest to middling rank. The moat represents settlement activity during the medieval period, though the precise dates of occupation and the social status of its inhabitants require archaeological investigation to establish with certainty. Such moated sites are common across the English Midlands and reflect patterns of medieval land use and domestic settlement.
