Terrier's Farm moated site is a medieval enclosed homestead located in Essex, England, designated as a scheduled ancient monument under NHLE list entry 1007838. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure of approximately rectangular form, characteristic of high and late medieval settlement patterns in Essex, dating to the medieval period. Moated sites of this type typically served as the defensive and residential focus of manorial or substantial farming settlements, with the water-filled ditch providing both practical and symbolic demarcation of the domestic precinct. The survival of the moat earthworks at Terrier's Farm represents an important archaeological record of medieval rural settlement and land use in the county.
