Overview

History & significance

Two moated sites and fishponds, and an associated area of ridge and furrow, west and north west of Court Farm House is an ancient monument comprising medieval agricultural and residential features in Warwickshire. The site contains two distinct moated enclosures, which typically date to the medieval period and served as the defended or status-bearing residences of local landholders, alongside evidence of managed fishponds that would have provided both sustenance and sport.
