Camp NE of Berra Tor is a prehistoric hillfort located on the high ground northeast of Berra Tor in Devon. The site comprises a defended enclosure defined by earthwork ramparts and ditches characteristic of Iron Age fortification practice, though the monument may incorporate earlier Bronze Age settlement activity. Its elevated position affords commanding views across the surrounding landscape, typical of hillforts constructed during the later prehistoric period, likely serving purposes of territorial control, defence, and communal gathering. The earthwork remains survive as significant archaeological evidence of settlement patterns and social organisation in southwest England during the Iron Age and preceding prehistoric periods.
