Enclosure west of Hound Plantation is a prehistoric earthwork monument located in Wiltshire. The site comprises an enclosed area defined by substantial banks and ditches, characteristic of Iron Age settlement patterns in the region. The earthwork's precise date within the Iron Age period remains subject to archaeological interpretation, though its form is consistent with domestic or defensive enclosures typical of the later prehistoric period in southern England. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and represents an important record of Iron Age land use and settlement organisation in Wiltshire.
