Robury Ring is a small enclosed settlement located on Wentnor Prolley Moor in Shropshire. The site comprises an earthwork enclosure typical of Iron Age settlement patterns in the Welsh Marches region, though its precise chronology remains subject to archaeological interpretation. The monument's defensive or boundary characteristics suggest occupation during the late prehistoric period, consistent with other fortified and semi-fortified settlements of the Iron Age found across the borderland landscape. The earthwork survives as an archaeological record of domestic settlement in an upland environment during antiquity.
