The Manor of the More is a moated site situated in Hertfordshire, dating from the medieval period. The monument comprises a substantial rectangular moat surrounding the former manorial dwelling, a common defensive and status-marking feature of high-status residences from the twelfth century onwards. The site reflects the settlement patterns and social hierarchy of medieval England, where such moated enclosures served both practical and symbolic functions for landholding families. The surviving earthwork provides archaeological evidence of domestic occupation and the manorial organization of the surrounding landscape.
