Camp on Mockham Down is a prehistoric hillfort situated in Devon. The monument comprises a roughly circular enclosure defined by a substantial bank and ditch, characteristic of Iron Age defensive settlements in the south-west of England. The site commands views across the surrounding landscape, a typical location for hillforts of this period which served as territorial centres and places of refuge. The earthwork remains visible today as a prominent topographical feature, though its precise dating within the Iron Age and the details of its occupation history require further archaeological investigation.
