Moated site at the vicarage of St Peter and St Paul's Church is a medieval earthwork located in Suffolk, England. The site comprises a moat, a defensive water-filled ditch that would have surrounded a residential enclosure, typical of high-status secular or ecclesiastical dwellings of the medieval period. Such moated sites were particularly common in East Anglia during the twelfth to sixteenth centuries, serving both practical and symbolic functions as markers of property and social status. The moat at this location is associated with the vicarage of the parish church, suggesting it may have been the residence of the church's clergy or a related institutional property.
