Castle Hill Camp is a Iron Age hillfort located near Almeley in Worcestershire. The site occupies a prominent hilltop position and is defended by substantial earthwork ramparts, characteristic of the fortified settlements constructed across the Welsh Marches during the later prehistoric period. The camp consists of a roughly circular or oval enclosed area surrounded by banks and ditches that would have served both defensive and demarcation functions. Like other hillforts of the region, it likely functioned as a centre of settlement, storage, and possibly refuge during the Iron Age, though the specific chronology and intensity of occupation remain subjects for archaeological investigation.
