Moated site of Flixton Priory is a scheduled monument located in Suffolk representing the earthwork remains of a medieval priory establishment. The site is defined by a substantial moat that once enclosed the priory precinct, a defensive or status-marking feature characteristic of high-status religious and secular sites in medieval England. The priory itself dates to the medieval period, when it functioned as a religious community within the monastic landscape of East Anglia. The surviving moated earthwork preserves evidence of the priory's layout and demonstrates the physical infrastructure that supported monastic life in this region during the Middle Ages.
