Earthwork enclosure on Milk Hill is a Neolithic or Bronze Age monument located in Wiltshire, consisting of a substantial circular or oval ditched enclosure. The site's defensive or ceremonial function remains subject to archaeological interpretation, though its scale and construction suggest a significant settlement or gathering place of prehistoric date. The earthwork survives as a visible landscape feature comprising banks and ditches that define the enclosure's boundary, and it forms part of the broader archaeological record of Wiltshire's chalk downland occupation during the later prehistoric period.
