The medieval town boundary of Tutbury is a series of three sections of earthwork located to the south and west of the settlement in Staffordshire. These linear features, comprising banks and associated ditches, date from the medieval period and represent the formal demarcation of the town's limits, reflecting its planned urban development and administrative organisation. The survival of these boundary earthworks provides evidence of Tutbury's medieval extent and the topographical controls that defined the historic townscape. Such boundary features are characteristic of established medieval towns and assist in understanding settlement patterns and land management practices during this period.
