Carvossa is a prehistoric and Roman settlement located in Cornwall, England. The site comprises an irregular enclosure with associated field systems that show evidence of occupation spanning from the prehistoric period through the Roman era. Archaeological investigation has revealed remains consistent with small-scale agricultural settlement typical of southwestern Britain during these periods. The monument's survival as an earthwork, despite later land use, provides valuable evidence for understanding settlement patterns and land organisation in Romano-British Cornwall.
