Woodrising Hall moated site is a medieval monument located in Norfolk, England. The site comprises a substantial moated enclosure that represents a form of domestic settlement characteristic of the medieval period, when such water-filled defensive ditches served both practical and status-conscious functions for the resident gentry. The moat remains visible as earthworks, preserving evidence of the layout and scale of the former manor house and its associated buildings that would have occupied the enclosed area.
