Slight univallate hillfort 150m east of Cleeve Court is a Iron Age defensive enclosure located in Somerset. The monument comprises a single defensive bank and ditch, characteristic of univallate hillforts of the period, though its earthworks are described as slight, indicating substantial erosion or loss since its original construction. Such hillforts typically date to the Iron Age, serving as focal points for settlement, storage, and defence within their local communities. The site's survival as an earthwork monument, despite apparent degradation, provides evidence of Iron Age land use and settlement patterns in the Somerset landscape.
