Enclosures NE of Peamore Cottage is a prehistoric monument consisting of earthwork enclosures located in Devon, England. The site comprises field systems and enclosed areas whose archaeological character indicates settlement and land management activity from the prehistoric period, though precise dating requires further investigation. The earthworks survive as banks and ditches visible in the landscape, representing evidence of ancient land use and potentially domestic occupation. Such enclosures are characteristic of Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement patterns in the South West, reflecting the development of organised agricultural communities during these periods.
