Moated site of Holton House is a medieval residential monument situated in Oxfordshire, consisting of a substantial moat that formerly enclosed a domestic dwelling. The site dates from the medieval period and represents the type of fortified or defensible residence favoured by the gentry during the Middle Ages. Associated with the moated site is an ice house, a structure typical of the post-medieval period that would have been used for storing ice for domestic purposes. The combination of the moat and ice house demonstrates continuity of occupation and the site's importance as a substantial residence across different historical periods.
