Burpham camp is a prehistoric hillfort located near the village of Burpham in West Sussex, England. The monument consists of a roughly oval enclosure defined by a substantial bank and ditch, positioned on elevated ground that commands views of the surrounding landscape. The site dates to the Iron Age, a period during which such fortified settlements served important functions in territorial control and community defence across southern Britain. Burpham camp remains a significant example of Iron Age defensive architecture in the South Downs region, though the precise chronology and duration of occupation require further archaeological investigation.
