Moated site, enclosure and trackway at Claybrooke Parva is a medieval monument located in Leicestershire, comprising a moated homestead together with associated enclosure earthworks and a hollow-way trackway. The moat itself represents a form of domestic fortification and status marker typical of the medieval period, whilst the surrounding enclosures suggest organised agricultural or pastoral land use contemporary with the main settlement. The hollow-way indicates sustained routeway usage over an extended period, with the track worn into the landscape through repeated passage of foot traffic and vehicles. The monument survives as earthwork features and provides archaeological evidence for medieval settlement patterns and landscape organisation in the East Midlands region.
