The northern of three enclosures north of Ford Waste is a prehistoric earthwork monument located in Devon, England. The site comprises an Iron Age or later prehistoric defensive or stock-management enclosure, defined by a substantial bank and ditch arrangement typical of such period settlement patterns. The monument forms part of a group of three enclosures in close proximity, suggesting a pattern of sustained land use and territorial organisation in this part of Devon during the later prehistoric period. The earthwork remains visible as an archaeological feature of significance for understanding settlement hierarchy and land division strategies in the Devon landscape.
