Roundabout Wood moated site, fishponds, and farming and settlement remains is a complex of medieval and post-medieval features located in Buckinghamshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure, associated fishponds, and scattered earthworks indicating agricultural activity and habitation, dating primarily to the medieval period though with evidence of later modification. The moat represents the residential or defensive core of what was likely a manorial settlement, whilst the fishponds served both practical sustenance and status functions typical of contemporary landed holdings. The broader landscape of field systems and settlement dispersal evidenced at the site illustrates patterns of medieval land use and rural organisation characteristic of the Midland counties.
