Enclosure on Stalldown is a prehistoric monument located in Devon, England. The site consists of an enclosed area defined by earthwork boundaries, characteristic of settlement or ritual activity during the Bronze Age or Iron Age periods. Such enclosures are typical of later prehistoric land use in southwest England, serving purposes ranging from domestic settlement to livestock management or ceremonial function. The monument's precise chronology and function remain subject to archaeological interpretation, though its surviving earthwork form provides evidence of prehistoric occupation and land organisation in the Devon landscape.
