Stockland Great Castle is a hillfort situated in Devon, England.

The monument consists of a univallate or multivallate earthwork comprising banks and ditches that define the enclosed area. Little archaeological investigation has been undertaken at this location, and details of its precise chronology and occupation history remain incompletely understood within the scholarly record.
