Round 750m north east of Trelaske House is a Cornish round, a prehistoric enclosed settlement of Iron Age date. The monument comprises a roughly circular or oval enclosure defined by a single bank and ditch, a defensive or social boundary typical of the late prehistoric period in Cornwall. Such rounds served as domestic and possibly ritual centres for farming communities, and their distribution across the Cornish landscape reflects patterns of settlement and land use during the Iron Age and Romano-British periods. The site's survival as an earthwork demonstrates the resilience of these field monuments, though like many Cornish rounds it has been subject to modification through subsequent agricultural use.
