Abstract:		 It was realised that the previously well preserved bank and ditch of a circular enclosure, some 30m in diameter, in Brigstock Great Park was being levelled by ploughing. In 1979 it was decided to excavate part of the enclosure in order to determine its date and function before it became completely levelled. The Iron Age ground surface within the enclosure was found not to have been disturbed by ploughing, and the excavation of the enclosure and roundhouse was completed in 1981. A stone pathway ran through the opening in the enclosure bank and through the entrance of the ring ditch enclosing a roundhouse, ending at the roundhouse doorway, which was 3m wide, flanked by large post-pits. The roundhouse was 7.8m in diameter, defined by a narrow wall slot. The pottery assemblage includes both scored ware jars and curvilinear decorated bowls, indicating a date probably spanning the 2nd-1st centuries BC.
