Monks Garth moated site is a medieval enclosed settlement located in Lincolnshire, England. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure that represents a form of domestic and agricultural organisation typical of the medieval period, when such earthwork defences served both practical and status-indicating functions for their occupants. The moat itself survives as a clearly visible earthwork feature, defining the boundaries of what was likely a manorial or monastic holding. The site is designated as a scheduled monument in recognition of its archaeological and historical importance as evidence of medieval settlement patterns and land use in the East Midlands region.
