The Manor of Hemingford Grey is a medieval moated site situated in Huntingdonshire, England. The monument comprises a substantial rectangular moat that encloses the manorial complex, representing a typical form of high-status residential enclosure dating from the medieval period. The moat survives as a significant landscape feature, preserving evidence of the settlement pattern and territorial organisation characteristic of medieval manorial estates in the East Midlands. The site demonstrates the physical investment made by medieval landholders in defending and demarcating their domestic and agricultural holdings, and remains an important archaeological record of medieval settlement and social hierarchy in the region.
