Small multivallate hillfort 660m east of Whitfield Farm is a Iron Age defensive enclosure situated in Gloucestershire. The site is defined by multiple concentric banks and ditches, characteristic of multivallate hillforts constructed during the later Iron Age, typically dating to the period between the 4th and 1st centuries BC. The earthwork defences demonstrate the considerable labour investment and engineering capability of Iron Age communities in the region, reflecting both defensive needs and social organisation. Such fortified settlements served as centres of habitation, storage, and possibly administrative functions within their local territories.
