Nordy Bank is a slight univallate hillfort located approximately 400 metres north-east of New House Farm in Shropshire. The site is defined by a single defensive bank and ditch, characteristic of Iron Age hill fortifications in the region, though the earthwork remains relatively modest in its surviving form. Its precise dating and period of occupation remain subjects of archaeological inquiry, as with many hillforts of this type in Shropshire where stratigraphic evidence is often limited. The monument is recorded on the National Heritage List for England and represents one of numerous Iron Age fortified settlements distributed across the Welsh Marches borderland.
