Enclosed Iron Age farmstead on Wilderley Hill, 470m north west of Sallins Cottage is a prehistoric settlement located in Shropshire, dating to the Iron Age period. The site comprises an enclosure defined by a ditch and bank, characteristic of Iron Age domestic occupation in the English Midlands, and represents evidence of settled agricultural communities during this period. The farmstead's enclosed form provided both practical organisation of domestic space and livestock management, reflecting the settlement patterns typical of Iron Age rural life in the region.
