Moated site SE of St Peter's Church is a medieval defensive earthwork located in Cambridgeshire. The site consists of a moat, a water-filled ditch that once surrounded a residential or manorial enclosure, representing a common form of high-status settlement protection during the medieval period. Such moated sites were typically constructed from the twelfth century onwards and served both practical and symbolic functions, denoting the social standing of their occupants. The earthwork survives as an archaeological feature and is recorded as a scheduled ancient monument under the heritage listing system.
