Walton Old Hall is a moated site located in Suffolk, England, representing medieval settlement activity in the region. The monument comprises a substantial moat that formerly enclosed a residential complex, characteristic of high-status medieval dwellings from the twelfth century onwards. The site's earthwork remains survive as a defining topographical feature of the landscape, indicating the former presence of a hall and associated outbuildings within the defended enclosure. The moated form suggests occupation during the medieval period, when such defensive or status-demonstrating features were common among landholding families in East Anglia.
