Prehistoric enclosure south of The Intake, 920m south east of Stainton is a Neolithic or Bronze Age earthwork monument located in Cumberland, England. The site comprises a substantial circular or sub-circular enclosure defined by a bank and ditch, characteristic of prehistoric defensive or ceremonial enclosures of the northern English uplands. The monument's exact chronological attribution remains uncertain without excavation, though its morphological features are consistent with enclosures constructed during the later prehistoric period. As a surviving example of early settlement or ritual activity in the Cumbrian landscape, the site contributes to understanding of prehistoric land use and territorial organisation in this region.
