Moated site at Marwell Manor is a medieval earthwork monument located in Hampshire, England. The site consists of a substantial moat surrounding what would have been a residential enclosure, a form of domestic fortification characteristic of the medieval period, particularly from the 12th to 16th centuries. Such moated sites served both defensive and status-display functions for the gentry and nobility, and their preservation as earthwork remains provides valuable evidence for the settlement patterns and social hierarchy of medieval Hampshire. The monument at Marwell represents a significant example of medieval domestic architecture and land use in the region.
