Cherbury Camp is a univallate Iron Age hillfort situated in Berkshire. The monument comprises a single defensive bank and ditch enclosing an area of approximately 3.5 hectares on elevated ground. It dates to the Iron Age period, likely between the 5th and 1st centuries BCE, representing a form of settlement and defensive structure characteristic of that era in southern Britain. The site remains substantially visible as an earthwork, though its interior has been subject to modern land use which has affected preservation in places.
