Bury Hillfort is an Iron Age defensive earthwork located in Gloucestershire, England. The site comprises a substantial univallate or multivallate fortification, typical of late prehistoric hillforts constructed across the Welsh borderlands and western Midlands during the later Iron Age period. The earthwork's defensive character, defined by its bank and ditch systems, reflects the strategic importance of controlling territory and resources during the final centuries before the Roman conquest. As a scheduled monument and entry on the National Heritage List for England, Bury Hillfort remains a significant archaeological site for understanding Iron Age settlement patterns and defensive strategies in the Severn Valley region.
