The ring ditch and rectangular enclosure south-east of Mockbeggar is a prehistoric monument located in Sussex, England. The site comprises two distinct earthwork features: a circular ditch characteristic of Neolithic or Bronze Age settlement and funerary practice, and an associated rectangular enclosure of indeterminate but likely prehistoric date. Such ring ditches commonly represent the remains of domestic structures, burial monuments, or ritual enclosures from the later prehistoric period. The monument's survival as an earthwork feature indicates its archaeological significance for understanding settlement patterns and land use in ancient Sussex.
