Slight univallate hillfort 850m north east of Busseys Stool Farm is a modest Iron Age fortified settlement located in Dorset. The monument comprises a single defensive bank, indicating a relatively simple fortification design typical of smaller hillforts constructed during the Iron Age period. Its univallate form suggests it served a local defensive or administrative function rather than representing a major territorial stronghold. The site's precise chronology and occupation history remain subjects for further archaeological investigation, as is common with many of Dorset's smaller hillforts.
