This monument is a complex of two Late Iron Age or Romano-British enclosed settlements situated approximately 420 metres north-north-west of South Farm in Dorset. The site comprises two distinct enclosures with associated field systems, representing settlement organisation and agricultural land use during the transition between Iron Age and Roman periods. The physical remains demonstrate the continuation of indigenous settlement practices during the early Roman occupation of Britain, with the field systems indicating contemporary approaches to land division and management. This site contributes to understanding the distribution and character of rural settlements in Roman Dorset and the persistence of enclosed settlement forms across the Iron Age–Romano-British boundary.
