Chelwood Gate Enclosure is a Neolithic or Bronze Age earthwork located in Sussex. The site comprises a roughly circular or oval enclosed area defined by a ditch and bank, characteristic of prehistoric defensive or ceremonial monuments of southern England. Its exact date of construction remains uncertain owing to limited archaeological investigation, though its form is consistent with enclosures constructed during the later prehistoric period. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and represents an important element of the archaeological landscape of the Sussex Weald.
