The Neolithic enclosure located 510 metres north-east of Lawford House in Essex is a prehistoric earthwork dating to the Neolithic period. The monument consists of a roughly circular or sub-circular ditched enclosure, characteristic of early Neolithic settlement and activity in south-eastern England. Such enclosures served multiple functions including stock management, ceremonial purposes, and territorial definition during the fourth and third millennia before the present. The site represents evidence of early agricultural communities and their landscape exploitation in the Essex region during the formative period of British prehistory.
