Stonehouse Town Wall is a fragmentary defensive structure located in Stonehouse, Devon, England. The wall dates from the medieval period and represents part of the fortification system that once enclosed the town. Substantial sections of the wall survive in places, constructed of local stone, though much of the original circuit has been lost or substantially altered through subsequent development. The structure is significant as evidence of Stonehouse's medieval urban status and defensive importance during a period when many English towns were enclosed by protective walls.
