Earthworks in Little Ouse Valley is a series of linear and defensive earthen features located in the Little Ouse Valley region of Suffolk. The monuments comprise banks and ditches of Iron Age and Romano-British date, representing settlement patterns and possible territorial boundaries characteristic of the late prehistoric and Romano-British periods in East Anglia. The earthworks demonstrate the sustained occupation and land management practices of communities in the valley over an extended period. Their preservation as upstanding features provides archaeological evidence for understanding settlement distribution and defensive strategies in this landscape during the transition from Iron Age to Roman Britain.
