Twyford Down is a Romano-British enclosure with associated hollow ways located in Hampshire, England. The enclosure itself dates to the Romano-British period and represents settlement or agricultural land use during the Roman occupation of Britain. Hollow ways, formed by repeated use over centuries, traverse the site and relate to both Romano-British activity and subsequent medieval or post-medieval use of the landscape. The monument preserves evidence of long-term patterns of movement and land exploitation across multiple periods of Hampshire's history.
