Slight univallate hillfort 850m north east of Busseys Stool Farm is a prehistoric defensive earthwork located in Dorset. The site is defined by a single substantial rampart enclosing an interior area, characteristic of univallate hillfort design. The monument dates to the Iron Age period, representing a phase of fortified settlement construction across southern Britain during the first millennium BC. The earthwork survives as an upstanding archaeological feature, though the ramparts are described as slight in elevation, indicating erosion or ploughing of the original defensive banks over subsequent centuries.
