Causewayed Camp is a Neolithic enclosure located near Salmonby in the Lincolnshire Wolds. The monument consists of multiple concentric ditches interrupted by causeways, a characteristic feature of early Neolithic ceremonial and communal gathering sites dating to approximately 3500–3000 BCE. Such causewayed camps are considered amongst the earliest monumental constructions in Britain, serving functions that likely combined ritual, defence, and social assembly. The site represents an important example of early agricultural settlement and social organisation during the transition to farming economies in the British Neolithic.
