Boringdon Camp is a hillfort located in Devon, England, positioned on elevated terrain that commands views of the surrounding landscape. The site is enclosed by substantial defensive earthworks comprising banks and ditches that define its perimeter, characteristic of Iron Age fortified settlements. Dating to the Iron Age period, the camp represents one of the defensive settlements constructed during the later prehistory of south-west England, reflecting the social and military organisation of communities in that era. The earthwork remains survive as an upstanding monument, retaining archaeological significance for understanding the pattern of Iron Age settlement and land use in Devon.
