Moated site at Huddington Court is a medieval moated enclosure situated in Worcestershire. The moat survives as an approximately rectangular earthwork surrounding the site of a former manor house, representing a common form of domestic fortification and water defence employed by the English gentry during the medieval period. The monument dates principally to the medieval era, when such moated sites were characteristic features of the rural aristocratic landscape. The site remains of archaeological significance as evidence of medieval settlement patterns and the organisation of seigneurial estates in the West Midlands.
