Robin Hood’s Ball is a Neolithic causewayed enclosure on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, England, approximately 5 miles northwest of the town of Amesbury [1]. Whilst some have three or four causeways, Robin Hood’s Ball has only one, cutting through two circuits of ditches with low banks behind them [1]. Robin Hood’s Ball is a Neolithic feature that dates from the earliest developments around the plain [1]. It was probably constructed at around 4000 BC and in use possibly up to 3000 BC [1].
