Ring ditch 200 yards south-west of Trelease Mill is a prehistoric circular earthwork located in Cornwall. The monument comprises a roughly circular ditch with an associated bank, characteristic of ring ditches dating to the Bronze Age, a period when such enclosed ceremonial or domestic structures were commonly constructed across the British landscape. The precise function of this particular example remains uncertain, though ring ditches of this type are frequently interpreted as the denuded remains of barrows, domestic compounds, or ritual enclosures. The site's survival as an earthwork demonstrates the value of such monuments for understanding Bronze Age settlement patterns and land use in south-west England.
