Chelwood Gate Enclosure is a prehistoric monument located in Sussex, England. The site consists of an enclosed area defined by earthwork boundaries, characteristic of settlement or defensive structures from the Iron Age period. The enclosure represents an important example of prehistoric land use and territorial organisation in the Sussex Weald, demonstrating how communities in this region structured their settlements during the later prehistoric period. The monument's survival as an upstanding earthwork provides archaeological evidence for understanding Iron Age settlement patterns and social organisation in southern Britain.
