Hale's Manor is a moated site with associated earthworks located in Norfolk, England, representing a medieval settlement of local importance. The monument comprises a substantial moat surrounding the manorial dwelling, along with additional defensive and agricultural earthworks that indicate organised land use typical of the medieval period. Such moated sites were characteristic of the 12th to 16th centuries across East Anglia, serving both defensive and status-affirming functions for minor gentry and prosperous landowners. The survival of the earthworks at Hale's Manor provides valuable evidence for understanding the layout and development of Norfolk's medieval rural landscape.
