Camp NE of Berra Tor is a prehistoric hillfort situated on elevated terrain in Devon. The site comprises an Iron Age defensive enclosure defined by earthwork ramparts that would have served both protective and territorial functions for its inhabitants. The fort's strategic positioning exploits the natural topography of the landscape to enhance its defensive capabilities. Such enclosed settlements were characteristic of the later prehistoric period in the southwest of England, representing centres of settlement and control during the Iron Age.
