New Hall moat and fishpond is a medieval water feature located in Yorkshire, England. The site consists of the substantial earthwork remains of a moat and associated fishpond, which served both defensive and economic functions typical of medieval manorial settlements. These features date to the medieval period and represent the kind of water management infrastructure that would have been integral to a substantial medieval residence or manor house. The survival of the earthworks provides evidence of the layout and character of medieval settlement in the region.
