Earthworks in Park Wood is an ancient monument located in Buckinghamshire, consisting of linear defensive features and raised banks characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns. The site comprises ditches and banks that suggest organised land division or territorial demarcation from the Iron Age period, demonstrating the sophistication of prehistoric communities in managing and defending their landscape. The earthworks' preservation within woodland has enabled their survival and provides evidence of settlement hierarchy and land use during the later prehistoric period in the region.
