The site comprises a substantial rectangular moat, a characteristic defensive and status-bearing feature of the medieval period, which would have surrounded a residential or manorial complex. Such moated sites are typical of medieval settlement patterns in Essex and the broader south-eastern region of England, often dating from the 12th to 16th centuries.
