Earth Burgh is a univallate Iron Age hillfort situated in Wiltshire northwest of New Town Farm. The monument comprises a single defensive rampart enclosing an approximately circular or oval interior, characteristic of many British hillforts constructed during the later Iron Age period. The earthwork survives as a pronounced linear bank, though the site has been subject to agricultural use and modification over subsequent centuries. Its strategic positioning reflects the settlement patterns typical of Iron Age communities in the Wessex region, though detailed archaeological investigation of this particular site remains limited in the published record.
