Moated site west of Cufaude Farm is a medieval defensive and residential enclosure located in Hampshire. The site comprises a substantial moat, a characteristic feature of high-status medieval settlements in southern England, which would have surrounded a timber or stone dwelling and its associated buildings. Dating to the medieval period, likely from the 12th to 16th century, such moated sites represent the domestic strongholds of minor gentry and prosperous landowners. The monument survives as an earthwork, preserving an important record of medieval settlement patterns and social hierarchy in the Hampshire countryside.
