Soldier's Ring is a Neolithic causewayed enclosure located near Tilshead in Wiltshire. The monument comprises multiple concentric circuits of interrupted ditches with external banks, characteristic of causewayed enclosures dating to the early Neolithic period, approximately 3700–3500 BCE. These sites served varied functions including gathering places, markets, and ceremonial centres for Neolithic communities. The earthworks remain visible as cropmarks and surface features, providing evidence of early agricultural settlement patterns in the Wessex region.
