Two moated sites and associated ponds at Linstead Hall is a scheduled monument comprising two distinct moated enclosures situated in Suffolk, England. The site dates to the medieval period and represents the earthwork remains of settlement activity typical of the East Anglian landscape. The moated platforms and their associated water features indicate settlement of some substance, with the ponds suggesting medieval management of the surrounding agricultural land. Such dual moated complexes are relatively uncommon and may indicate sequential occupation or the presence of associated high-status dwellings within the same broader landscape unit.
