Enclosures on Greenber Edge is a scheduled ancient monument consisting of a series of earthwork enclosures located on moorland in Yorkshire. The site comprises linear boundaries and enclosed areas that reflect Bronze Age or Iron Age land management practices, periods during which such field systems were established across upland regions of northern England. The earthworks remain visible as low banks and ditches marking territorial divisions and stock management areas. Such moorland enclosure systems represent important evidence of prehistoric agricultural settlement and the exploitation of marginal upland landscapes.
