Two moated sites at Court Farm House, Fulbrook: aerial 2021 The monument survives well and remains largely unencumbered by modern development. It represents a good example of two moated sites constructed within close proximity to each other with valuable documentary information concerning their layout. Evidence for the design and function of the manor house which occupied the southern moated island and for structures which occupied the northern moated island will survive beneath the ground surface. Additionally organic material will be preserved within the waterfilled moat ditches of the southern moated site. The site retains well preserved remains of an extensive fishpond system, and the whole complex is set within units of ridge and furrow, the development of which will inform discussion of the date and character of occupation of the various parts of the site.
